We were reading one of Violet's Sesame Street books. This book had little flaps that you lift to see other characters doing other stuff.
She got transfixed on one page in particular, where everyone is in a laundromat. On the main page Bert is sitting on a washing machine while Ernie is washing clothes in the next machine, but the picture under the flap shows Bert drowning in a pile of suds. Apparently Violet loved Bert in the Suds.
"Bert's in the bubbles," Violet said, lifting the flap.
"Yes, he is," I said.
"Bert's out of the bubbles," Violet said, closing the flap.
Then she went off flipping and unflipping.
"Bert's in the bubbles."
"Bert's out of the bubbles."
"Bert's in the bubbles."
"Bert's out of the bubbles."
I thought she was going to wear the flap out. I really enjoy when something so silly gives her so much joy.
