Joshua Jackson Shares Rare Insight Into Bond With Daughter Juno

Joshua Jackson‘s latest daddy update will melt your heart. 

The Dawson’s Creek alum shared an adorable photo of himself, courtesy of daughter Juno, whom he shares with ex Jodie Turner-Smith.

As Joshua joked, he was hoping to break up his Instagram feed with an “aggressive closeup of my sweaty face,” but more importantly, wanted to share the story behind the photo.

“This morning after breakfast I told my daughter I was going to go do some yard work,” he wrote on Instagram Sep. 2. “She asked if she could come with me, which is of course a yes.”

However, the 4-year-old decided that she didn’t feel like joining her father, telling him, “‘Daddy, I think inside play is what I need right now.'”

So Joshua headed into the yard for some “dad therapy,” while Juno hung out with her grandmother.

“When I come back in,” he continued, “she presents me with this necklace. And tells me, ‘dada I wanted to stay inside so I could make you a necklace.’ And I asked her to take a photo of the me in the necklace.”
