Pondering Cookie Monster

1.22.2008



The other day I was reading one of Adam's favorite Sesame Street books to him - the one about Cookie Monster sharing his cookies with Elmo and Zoe.

When we finished I asked Adam, "So what about Cookie Monster? What color is he?"

"Blue!", he said.

"And, what does Cookie Monster like to eat?"

"No! No, mama!" Adam insisted. "Ad-ma say what about Cookie."

"OK, Adam. You tell Mommy about Cookie Monster."

"Cookie have no nose and no tun (tongue). And Zoe have pink nose and tun like a heart."

I guess it's just a minor detail that Cookie Monster must have a hard time tasting or smelling those cookies.

To think I've been so woefully unobservant about the Sesame Street clan all these years.

Sandra :

LOL I never noticed that before.....

Knit-Wit :

Huh. I never noticed that before either! Must be why it doesn't bother cookie monster to eat those cardboard tasting cookies!

Lauren@Baseballs&Bows :

I've always thought that if I couldn't taste, I wouldn't be so tempted to eat. I guess Cookie Monster proves that theory wrong!

Adam is VERY observant!

Tonja :

They don't miss a thing, do they?

Linda :

I know I have not noticed that he did not have a nose either and I pride myself in details. Maybe at one time I knew it but it was just information I did not think I would need in life. Irregardless what a bright boy you have.:)
Blessings,

Holy cow...I've never noticed! And I definitely never noticed that Zoe has a heart shaped tongue!

Kids are so observant, aren't they?
