Working Hard

Bonus Sketch for 1-in-48. Journaling Reads:

Since Daddy takes care of you during the week, I try to spend most of my
weekend moments with you. A few weeks ago, I had to do a photo shoot for
a client and when I came home from the shoot, Daddy went out running.
Normally I’d sit and play with you, but I wanted to get the photos
processed before our trip to New York, so I wanted to try something new.
I pulled your high chair next to my desk and got the box of crayons with
paper for you, so you could draw while I worked.

We sat that way for hours, you doing your creative work, and me doing
mine. We must have been too engrossed in what we were doing because
neither one of us heard daddy come back from his run. When he saw how
much fun we were having, he grabbed the camera and snapped a few shots
of our special moment.

David, I have this dream that as you grow older, we’ll be able to create
together much more often. I am so thrilled that you like crayons and
drawing as much as you do. I can’t wait to introduce you to my
scrapbooking stuff and see all the wonderful art you’ll make. Only a few
more years and we’ll be sitting side by side, working on our layouts,
sharing ideas, and enjoying every little moment of it.

I can’t wait.
