On the way home from Myrtle Beach a few weeks ago, we stopped at Sesame Place (http://www.sesameplace.com/) since we already had tickets and dinner reservations with Elmo. It was really fun! It’s a water park so there was some exposed skin that would have been better off kept hidden, but what the heck? We were free to flash our excess skin around without any inhibitions. Norah wasn’t a big fan of meeting the characters in person, although she LOVES them on TV. I saw a show on exposure therapy a while ago, where the therapist made people face their fears…the woman who was terrified of snakes had to hold one for hours, the guy who had panic attacks in elevators had to ride up and down numerous times. Norah had her own semi-successful exposure therapy session with Cookie Monster:
