Title: Wee Wicki Helping Daddy
Post by: MWirwicki on April 08, 2016, 04:46:19 pm
It just melts my heart when the little guy makes his way to my bow shop and says,
"Daddy.  Can I sit?"

I'm old enough to know it's moments like these to treasure...

That's a precious picture Matt.  He is growing up fast.  Are you bringing the family to the Classic this year?

Good to see ya making the most of your time together. Little Dan will know just about all there is to learn about making and shooting bows by the time he reaches the ripe old age of 9. ;D

That is so very nice.... a very lucky dad whose kid wants to be with him... a very lucky kid whose dad wants him there.  What a great picture!  I remember him at the classic with a pile of yellow sawdust on his head :)  He is still so cute!

You can tell he really thinks his daddy is cool. They grow up so fast get caught up in other stuff hope he always thinks that way. I would say your off to a great start.👍

And the opp to "work" with Dad, Grandpa, Uncle, etc. is special for the lil one too! Maybe because it's an environment enough different than hum-drum of daily routine experiences.
I can remember the walk through knee-high snow to Dad's shop, smell the pot belly stove burning over in the corner, hear the Blackhawk's game on radio, and always ringing in my ears, "put that tool away after you're done usin' it!"
Thanks for the picture, Matt. Brings back some memories.

It's hard to believe that's the same little guy I remember sleeping in his play pen at Cloverdale! Great picture BTW, it says a lot.

My wife thinks 2 months is too young for the boy to be in my shop. I'll sneak him in there when I'm doing something not too messy when she's gone one day.

I had Dan in his bouncie on my workbench at around 2 months.  He used to smile when I twirled my C-Clamps open or closed.  If I can find the pic, I'll post it.

My two oldest boys quickly grew out of working with dad, butmi still have my daughter who likes to hang out with her dad. They grow up fast.

I remember 3 springs ago at pappys. He was small enough to take a bath in one of those little plastic foot pans the hospital send you him with. He had room to play in there! Not now dad!

The most praiseworthy pictures are not the ones of fancy bows, but pictures like these!
