where the wild things are

Clyde has been looking forward to taking Josh to see the film, "Where the Wild Things are," since we learned they were making it. We love the book by Maurice Sendak. Clyde wanted to take Josh and Josh alone for the first time viewing it. This film was made for 9 year old boys and it just so happens that we have a 9 year old boy. Clyde said that he loved the movie and that he loved watching Josh watch it. On the trailer, the group Arcade Fire is playing and both Clyde and Josh are huge Arcade Fire fans. (They saw them together for an Obama Rally last year. Here is one of their songs "Wake Up," and another one, "Invervention," {this one is my favorite} and another one "Keep the Car Running.") We made a deal with Josh, that if he took a nap that Clyde would take him out when he got home from the school dance last night. It took Josh awhile to fall asleep, but once he did, he slept for 4hours. He needed to be well rested because they didn't get home until after midnight. What a wonderful experience for my fellas. Last night was such a memorable moment for them. Clyde is such a good daddy!!
