[@ZigBaird]

The dogs were probably chasing that cat that's outside your window at 12:56 of the video! LOL Congrats to your other halves on their new venture!

[@masontejera506]

lol - I will be thinking mom & me laser on repeat as I fall asleep for the next week. Congratulations Jay!

[@WiscoWoodShop]

Happy Birthday. Great dad providing great barbecue!

[@dansarfert3585]

Great new stuff Jay! Congrats to her. She's sure to excel with your support and experience! The website looks good too!

[@vladtepes97]

scaffold in the bedroom sounds intriguing.

[@ctfleming85]

This Is great! Your drive is inspiring and motivating. I love that you are getting your daughter involved and I wish you guys all the success in your new endeavor.

[@allystrya]

This is so beautiful to me! Love, love, love your wife has found something she can enjoy creatively! Love you are being supportive and your enjoyment of her endeavors. Love your daughter is starting out her life in such an environment! The website is simple and sleek which is A+ in my opinion. 😊👍🏻

[@pmdinaz]

Congrats! Sounds like a good fun business that teaches your daughter invaluable life skills.

[@RobSandstromDesigns]

Such a great story. Still trying to draw my daughter into the business - she is doing much more since I got the laser. Hope your wife, daughter, and you enjoy the journey together. Have fun.

[@williamellis8993]

Sounds great, Jay. Congratulations to your wife and daughter. Bill

[@felicadawn62]

Such a great idea for pulling the family together and learning together! Really cute website! And, I learned something as well. 😉 I've followed you at least 5 years as I had been watching for a while when you announced that you would be adopting your precious girl. I just loved when you shared her with all of us. Anyway, what I learned? I always thought Jay was short for Jayson or something like that. So, learning on the "About" page of momandme that your name was Jonathan was quite a surprise. 😁 Anyway, nice work and congrats on the new venture. I'm sure she really appreciates all of that help you are giving her on it.

Greetings,from Mr Axel Vasa the west coast wizard himself. I have got something essential to share with you. Let's keep spreading much love and positive light to the world. 💯❤️🙏

for the pork, you can always cook the day before and rest in the oven at 150-170.

[@southernjoes8372]

I used to get severe migraines too, then switched to a carnivore diet and haven’t had one since. Over the last 18 months I’ve basically cheated twice and paid the price. The support you’ve given to get your wife’s business up and running is an inspiration.

[@pmelchman]

congrats on the new business. Product photography is definitely time consuming. If possible a white background can be used or in post you can Photoshop the background out and fill with white. For such small items a small whitebox would be just fine. My setup for the aprons is with large flash bulbs.

[@jurb]

She shed build coming soon.... Congratulations to you and your family.

[@jeffdsmith007]

Very happy for you, Jay , your wife and your family. Best wishes on the new venture. P.S. Eat healthy 😊

[@robertfinch1658]

Congratulations!

[@gil6995]

Went carnivore for two months then keto. No more crap food. Lost 30 pounds in 6 months. No more junk food cravings. Dropped my blood pressure. Keep on eating good, Jay.

[@robthewaywardwoodworker9956]

Love all that for your daughter. Maybe you could add a door to the shop right where that window is and wall off a small office for your wife & daughter enterprise. The extra walls would give you a place to hang tools. In my experience, you can never have too many walls! LOL

[@JenkinsB]

love ya Jay, y'all are inspirational !!!

[@hansangb]

@11:00 Doesn't cutting things like plywood create formaldehyde? The heat from the laser, I mean. Putting it in the bedroom (inside the house) would be a terrible idea, methinks.

[@forby_]

Love it! Well done man.

[@wmcrash]

Do you also have a cat? There is one that shows up in your window at 13:00. Best of luck with the new endeavor!

[@JoshHighley]

the product at 5m01s of Luke 1:45 has a misspelling

[@JDeWittDIY]

good eye

[@fcschoenthal]

Went to your wife's site and see a couple of Christmas gifts. Looks great by the way. I'll point my wife to it (since she has the final say, of course). - Chris

[@glen748]

Do you have room to buy or build a small shed in a corner of the yard for the laser business. If you build it could be some content for you. Like the outdoor patio build.

[@ScottHaun]

love all the scriptures

[@mitchs323]

I see a new build in your future!

[@stlwoodworking]

You need a bit boss lol set it and forget it

[@typeaboutit]

Love the Bible verses on the products! All the best to you guys on the venture :)

[@bigwillysgarage2301]

Could u utilize the loft ??? For laser business

[@emilevoyer123]

DO YOU HAVE ENOUGH ROOM, TO LEAVE IT WAY IT IS AND PUT A WALL UP TO MAKE IT ITS OWN ROOM?

[@ZDub77]

Why are you yelling at him?

[@RichSobocinski]

"Not everyone likes pulled pork" what!!?? You need better friends and family😅

[@Taters_OldManGolf]

Love the verses Jay! One of my many favorites is Ephesians 2:8-9 “For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: Not of works, lest any man should boast.” It’s our job to spread the good news about Jesus Christ and how HE died for all. Eternity is forever, we need to be prepared to stand before God! Have a great day and tell someone about Jesus.

[@nomen.nescio]

I come here for woodworking, not to get indoctrinated with someone's made up invisible friend.

[@dj-bn1fj]

Jay looks like time to build a she shed for these ladies have a place to work. 🙄

[@waynebooker498]

God dude, you're bringing me down. I don't need your bad day, I have my own.

[@daveklein2826]
