Elmo's Dad

Play Elmo's Potty Time and check out Elmo's dad. I get the impression that he was a late-in-life father—he has a certain grandpa quality. According to Muppet Wiki, Elmo's dad is named Louie and first appeared in the Sesame Beginnings DVD series. In Sesame Beginnings Louie is "a stay-at-home dad and the primary caregiver to his infant son." In a 2006 DVD for children of parents in the military, Louie has joined the military and been shipped overseas.
