Nuh nuh, nuh nuh, Elmo's World

If you love Elmo so much, why don't you marry him?

I ask this to Spencer daily.

And by Spencer, I mean Rose.  Phew, that would be a llllllittle bit awkward if my husband was obsessed with Elmo, heh.  [scratches neck.]

Why do all babies love Elmo?  More than all the other Sesame characters?  There might be some crazed moms reading this right now, ready to box me in the face for offending in their minds the superior muppet Oscar or Big Bird, or heaven forbid, Miss Piggy.  Well, HOOTENANNY.  Elmo is the best so much so that he has his own world.  Like, duh.


Am I such the terrible mother than I let my child watch an episode or two or five of Sesame Street in her [daily] life?  It's like, she gets bored of her toys so fast and I wish we could buy a new exersaucer each time she gets bored of the old one, but our 500 sq.ft. apartment has only so much ...square footage.
