Every few months Maury comes for work and stays with us. Max loves his Uncle Maury! I guess none of Maury's other nephews or nieces call him Uncle so whenever Max says, "Uncle Maury" he responds by saying, "Yes nephew Max?"
One night we were in the living room trying to put the boys to bed but Max insisted that Maury read him his bedtime story. It was very quickly turning into a tantrum when Maury came in to read to him. It was fun to see gruff Maury reading to my little boy and to see Max's excitement.
After Max had gone to bed we thanked Maury for taking time to read to him. I teared up when Maury said, "I didn't do anything today that was more important than reading that story to him." As obnoxious as Maury can be he definitely has his moments. And he is really good to Max.
