I've always loved cookie monster but my favorite sesame street moment has nothing to do with me or my kids. My sister loved Ernie. In ways that just can not be explained. When she hit middle school and could join band she would not touch any instrument but a saxophone! There was no talking her out of it, no even trying anything else. That girl wanted to play the sax since she found out Ernie did. I'm not sure she even remembers why she decided to play the sax but I will never forget it!!
