Carol and the boys watch Elmo on Sesame Street every morning, and she was very excited to give them an Elmo Live for their birthday. This astonishing toy features the furry, bright-red character performing complex actions that give him a life-like quality: His mouth and head move while he talks, sings, and tells stories; he gestures with his arms, and he moves his legs. He even crosses his legs when he sits on his little stool. Yesterday we noticed that the boys were sitting on their toy-boxes waving their arms while gibbering happily and realized they were impersonating Elmo. Right then and there Sandy and I made a pack to blame Elmo for any bad behavior they may mimic of ours.
