A Cupcake for Moose: A Baby in the Workshop

While I was in the kitchen, probably snarfing Nutella and toast with my Saturday coffee, these two were having some quality bonding time in Mr. Schalk’s workshop. Yes, it’s also known as a garage, but I prefer workshop. Someday he’ll have a proper workshop where his tools and imagination can fully breathe, but until then I would much rather consider the garage his workshop/studio/man space. We all need a little space to call our own, don’t you agree?

They definitely have their own special bond. I am amazed at how our little girl looks to her daddy for affirmation before anyone else. It’s like it is ingrained into her being to seek her Daddy's approval. Talk about a life lesson. Thankfully the Lord is always cheering us on to be our best for His glory. There is nothing sweeter to the soul than the affirmation a Dad, whether earthly or our Heavenly Father, gives us. I still remember my dad telling me I was the apple of his eye when I was a little kiddo. It's amazing the things we remember.

I can just picture Cricket helping her Daddy build wonderful things out here. Adventures are sure to abound as they discover the joy of making projects together. It’s a gift to share passions with the ones you love.
