RE: [Sotosyndrome] Big Comfy Couch?

Thanks for clearing that up.  I've never heard of it.

It’s a kids show… the main actress is dressed as a clown <lunette> and then.. the rest are puppets?  I can’t remember anymore.  I was a show Jacob watched on occasion.

it was really cute.  One of his big fears is Big Comfy Couch.  He was watching tv in his room last night, he is aloud to do that Friday nights, it came on.  He jumped out of bed so fast, all his sheets were on the floor.  He would not go back in there until I turned it off.  Poor guy

funny how that is with their fears - they seem to come and go... Kyle
was terrified of "Mr Noodle" on Elmo's World but now he is fine with
him - his latest is that he freaks out when I take him to my
daughter's school to pick her up... he just complains and crys the
whole time we are there - very weird as he used to love it and nothing
has happened or changed to justify the fear...

Sounds like Jesse had a blast last night too cute with him taking the
candy to the end of the driveway!

have a great day

off, came home, put on his Ninja costume and they went back out. When
they got home, he was jumping for joy at the prospect of giving out
candy. He even took the bowl to the end of the driveway, I thought he
was going to run after kids to give them candy, it was so cute.
