I was one of the earliest beneficiaries of Sesame Street. Susan, Bob, Mr. Hooper, Big Bird, Ernie and Bert, Oscar the Grouch (who was originally orange), and Kermit the Frog were some of my first TV friends.
Each episode was sponsored by two or three letters and one or two numbers. Each time I watched the show, I would wait, watching and hoping to see if “C” or “Y” or “4” would be one of them. Because. Didn’t Mr. Hooper know my initials? Didn’t Big Bird know how old I was?
You can only imagine my delight then, when on the same day, both “C” and “4” were the featured characters! It was the best day. Ever.
It’s great when dreams come true. No matter how big. No matter how small. No matter how early. No matter how late.
