Muppets

[siercia]

Jim Henson is a genius. I spent a couple of hour last night watching old Muppet Shows. I can't believe how much is in them that I completely missed watching it when I was 7, or however old I was. Muppets will always have a special place in my heart - every Saturday night was Muppets night in my house. We'd eat dinner, then my Dad would make popcorn most weeks, and we'd all settle in to watch the Muppet Show as a family. That was pretty rare, my Mom wasn't much of a television fan, so we didn't do much tv as a group.

There was a lot of stuff like that my Mom didn't do. Lots and lots of my fun memories from being a kid is of doing things, or taking trips with my siblings and my Dad, but no Mom. Now that I'm a mom, I can partly understand why that was - since she stayed home with us kids, the only time she had any time to herself was when my Dad would take us kids off her hands. While I understand why she treasured her time alone so greatly, I don't think I want to do that. As much as I want the time to myself, I think I want to be a part of the fun things in my little one's life.

And now, because I can, I have to inflict one more really cute Widget pic on y'all.
