sesame street


What is going on?  For the past month I have urges to watch Sesame Street.  Very strange, but I feel compelled to do this, so I will tape some shows and try to figure out why this is happening.  I was a teenager when it began airing on television and my baby brother, Wally, said his very first word after viewing this kid's program - and believe it or not, the word was agua (Spanish for water.)  I vividly remember watching the movie Follow That Bird with our sons so many times that we knew all the dialogue and lyrics to each song.  I just can't figure out why I keep yearning to watch it now...

Sunny Day
Sweepin' the clouds away
On my way to where the air is sweet

Can you tell me how to get,
How to get to Sesame Street.

Come and play
Everything's A-OK
Friendly neighbors there
That's where we meet

Can you tell me how to get
How to get to Sesame Street

It's a magic carpet ride
Every door will open wide
To Happy people like you --
What a beautiful

Sunny Day
Sweepin' the clouds away
On my way to where the air is sweet

Can you tell me how to get,
How to get to Sesame Street....

very strange... xo
