So Sundays in our house are not often what you would call a “day of rest.” It’s difficult, because of assorted church meetings that happen in the mornings before church. And then church itself happens to be right smack dab in the middle of naptime for both kids, from 1:30 -4:30! Usually by the time we get home it’s almost 5:00pm, and too late to attempt any sort of nap. So, they both usually go to bed early on Sunday nights, and the time leading up to bedtime can be pretty crazy.

Tonight, Mylie was pulling all her usual “I’m tired” antics of getting really hyper, basically to keep herself from falling asleep standing. She gets really silly and runs around and smacks into things. So, to calm things down before bed, we suggested she put her pajamas on and then we would play a game with her. She was still being all goofy while Nick was trying to get her PJ’s on her, and I could hear her running around her room singing nonsense songs and jumping all around.

And then, out of the blue, I hear her yell at the top of her lungs “To Infinity, and BEYOND!” (For those of you less familiar with Pixar’s Toy Story, well… this will probably just go right over your head). Both Nick and I started totally cracking up. Apparently she had climbed up on a big hat box that’s in her room, and pointed her finger in the air before proudly proclaiming Buzz Lightyear’s famous line. What a goof that girl is! I’m almost positive she thought she was going to attempt flight, too. Luckily, her parents rolling on the floor in laughter distracted her before she broke any bones. Thanks for the laugh, kiddo…
