Jaymes calls Clay "The Perfect Person"

NJ.com has reported a quote from Jaymes which I think is very sweet and true, LOL.

Clay Aiken's baby mama says he's 'the perfect person'

Clay Aiken Jaymes Foster, Clay Aiken's best friend and baby mama, tells People that the singer is "an incredible caregiver," and "on a larger scale, he's the perfect person."

"He's been a school teacher, we have the same morals, family is very important to him and Parker means everything to us," she says.

Foster and Aiken conceived 7-week-old Parker through in vitro fertilization. Foster, who's 50 but looks years younger, says she just wasn't ready to have kids when she was younger. "I had the freedom then to travel the world and have a wonderful career. I believe at this point in my life it's the right time, and I think because it's the right time, I'll hopefully do a good job. If I don't, Clay will be all over me!"
