Buzz?


Well I don't know if everyone knows... but on Sunday mornings I have the pleasure of working with 2 year olds during the Sunday school hour. My morning usually consists of playing with play-doo, herding the sheep and walking them up to sing classics such as, "Jesus loves me," "This little light of mine." You get the point. Then after that we head back downstairs to our room, try to group them up, have story time and then all out play time until parents arrive. A lot of people ask me if I really do enjoy working with 2 year olds and I am like yes for sure....gives me an excuse to act like I'm 2 which I enjoy. Another great thing is the fact that kids truly do say the darnest things. Here's a little story from Sunday. Along with the fun responsibilities I described earlier, I have the privilege of taking every kid to the bathroom, you know when they do the potty dance. Every kid is different when I get in there to, because I never know what they do at home, and how much there mom helps. Well on Sunday I took this kid into the bathroom and he put the seat up, took the pants down and did his thing. Afterwards though he didn't pull up his pants he just wanted to run around the bathroom with them down. So I was like ok buddy get over here....so I pulled up his underwear first. And he stuck out his butt towards me and said do you know who this is??? I was like of course that's Buzz Lightyear. And he just smiled and while still sticking his butt out....continued to say TO INFINITY AND BEYOND!!! Times like these help make up for all the other times when there are kids who won't stop crying the entire hour. What a great story!!!
