Sesame Street was never a favorite with the boys...Alex was too impatient that they would tell the same letters over and over and shout, "I get it, I get it...you don't need to tell me so many times!" He was two at the time and already knew the alphabet backwards and forwards literally. He thought the muppets were so stupid. LOL. Matt always stressed about the fact that we never actually WENT to Sesame Street, after all they were always asking "Can you tell me how to get to Sesame Street?" And in his mind, if you could tell someone, we ought to be able to go there, too. We had the same problem with Timmy and Lassie and Matt as he just wanted always to go there or invite them over and I finally just gave the whole thing up and found other things to do than watch tv. It was just way too stressful.Kaytehttp://www.grandmaskitchentable.typepad.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3034743878261895543.post-26871834998730688932009-11-10T09:12:09.534-05:002009-11-10T09:12:09.534-05:00Do you remember the original Muppets on Saturday N...Do you remember the original Muppets on Saturday Night Live in the 70's?
