We had five of those Mister Rogers albums when I was a kid.
Off the top of my head:

Won't You Be My Neighbor
Let's Be Together Today
A Place of Our Own
You Are Special
... and finally his concept album, Josephine the Short-Necked Giraffe.

I'd love to have just one of those! Thankfully we have YouTube for some of them.

I saw the documentary the other day in theaters. It was so fantastic, and a nice homage to his work.

I just saw an episode where he asked Picture Picture to show video of when he was a baby. It was fascinating to see his father, mother, and grandfather! The footage was from the late 20s and early 30s and went from just a few months old where he could barely lift his head to when he was about three years old or so. It was very cool.

Our pastor spoke this morning on healing. He talked about how as Christians we should reach out a hand of understanding and friendship to try to lessen the division and bitterness in our society. And guess who he used as an example in his sermon....? :D

It's too bad that I couldn't find a video of him singing this song, but I'll post this anyway. It's really a sweet song. I love the tune so much. Parents Were Once Little Too.
