Yesterday and Today Google has once again thrilled me with their logo. Cookie Monsters big eyes were the O's, and Big Birds sweet legs the L's . It was Sesame Street's 40th birthday. How can that be? Big Bird looks the same, the cookie monster has not gained a pound!!
Thinking about "the hood" brought back so many memories. I only had one child who would watch Sesame Street with me. One out of five, that is horrible, but at least that precious one, Ward, shared my love of these Muppet creatures. We would sing all of the songs, count with The Count!!!!, go to Mr. Hooper's store, learn English and Spanish from Maria. Gordon was one of my favs, we met him years later, and I fell over him, as if he were Robert Redford!!! My kids were no where to be seen, and I am in line to meet Gordon from Sesame Street!!!! Ward potty trained in front of that show. Potty chair, naked child and "Letter B" being sung in the background, or was it The Ladybug Picnic?? One of Ward's first words was "Oscar", not ma-ma, or Da-da, seriously Oscar!!!! We had every stuffed Bert and Ernie, Grover, Kermit, Cookie, Oscar in the Can!!!, big bird and if they had had a Gordon, we would have had that too!!!!!
A shrink told us one time, that Ward had a hard time knowing the difference between real and make believe!!! That could be true, doctor sir, because his mom thinks all the creatures on Sesame street are real!!! We got a new doctor, honestly!!!!! Can you tell me how to get to Sesame Street????
