Reese loves Elmo. When he is on TV, she just sits and watches. If she sees him in a book, she will keep flipping though that book and carry that book around with her. She will also carry the DVD box with Elmo on it around and try to put his DVD into the DVD player. La La is her name for Elmo. We think that she likes Elmo because he is red, and she has always been attracted to things that are red.
A few weeks ago, Yai Yai found out that Elmo was coming to town. She offered to buy tickets for us to see Elmo Makes Music and so that is where we went yesterday. Reese absolutely loved the show! She was standing in my lap or in Daddy's arms almost the whole time. She would clap and move to the music. She was enchanted!
Seeing her almost made me wish that I had taken her brother when he was younger, but I am not sure that he would have enjoyed it as much as she did. We all had a great day and a great time seeing Elmo and his friends.
