Gotta love it Cecil! When our 12 yr old grand daughter was little I watched her everyday as a stay at home G- PA ! Being our first we went to TOYS R US at least once a week. Hardees ,Micky D's you name we went! I tell people that when ever her and I got in the truck to go somewhere ,Elmo had to be in the CD player I was S.O.L.! Not what you think! It stands for "Sing out loud Grandpa!"! And I did, all for the love of that kid and those that followed. I think I know every Elmo song ever done! Because of all those Elmo A-B-C...songs that girl now at age 12 can recite the alphabet forward and backward as well as every other letter forward and can bang it out in reverse every other letter. Let her sing and sing with her if she wants you to!
