Today I turned 25 years old. Yep, I’m 1/4 of the way to the century mark. Today made me think of what some of my “favorites” have been in my life–my favorite songs, video games, TV shows, friends, subjects in school, etc. When I was a little kid (I use the term “little” loosely), my favorite show was Sesame Street. My earliest memory of Sesame Street is still one of my favorites. It was James Taylor singing “Jelly Man Kelly.” That happened in 1980…4 years before I was even born. 29 years later, I’m still a fan of James Taylor (and Sesame Street). It’s amazing how some things never change. Since today is my 25th birthday, and this year is Sesame Street’s 40th anniversary, I thought I’d share a little bit of my favorite moment:

Ok, I have totally always loved this! When my niece was really little, she had this Sesame Street Sing-a-Long VHS, and this was her favorite song on the whole tape. She would stand right in front of the tv when this song would come on, and she would “yell” with the kids when they would sing along with him. So cute. Good ol’ Sesame Street and James Taylor.
