Clay's inimitable parenting style
"Go to bed. Time to go," Clay intoned at Max. Max wandered in the general direction of his room, and Clay burst into song. "Good night, sweet heart, well it's time to go-oh," and lower voiced, "to-o your bed." Back to regular voice, "before you get punched i-in the nose," and down, "by-y your dad."
"Dad, you are awesome," Max called, on his way down the stairs. "When you sing, you are AWESOME."
"Really?"
"Yup, because you make up all these words, and I never know what you're going to say. Awesome."
"Thanks, buddy. Go to bed. Seriously."
The kind of beautiful, ordinary moment that stays in the heart forever! You guys are all awesome
