What Does Your Mommy Do?

I have never had one of those jobs they sing about on Sesame Street.

Probe further, and you'll get more:

  • "She asks a lot of questions"
  • "She helps people figure things out"
  • "She teaches people stuff"
  • "She has a team"
  • "She tries to make work more fun"

They know because they live it.
