For two years now Josiah has been wanting a Buzz Lightyear. Before opening any present, whether it was his birthday, Christmas or Easter, Josiah would say "I hope it's a Buzz Lightyear." Missy and I would explain to him that Toy Story came out about 10 years ago and they don't make the toys anymore. He was insistent on finding one and and never gave up hope. Missy and I always looked for Buzz and couldn't find one. My searches on eBay would usually show a few Buzz Lightyear MIP but the prices were always ridiculous.
Well this year I found myself at Target and while walking down the toy aisle I spotted Woody from Toy Story. I immediately grabbed Woody and said, "Woody, where's Buzz?" Scanning the shelves I could not see the space ranger. I looked up and down each aisle and eventually found Buzz tucked way back on the bottom shelf. Eureka, a Festivus Miracle. I called Missy and we were both elated that we finally found a Buzz for Josiah. We could hardly wait to see his reaction when opening our gift to him.
Christmas morning comes and we saved Buzz for his last present. He sarted to unwrap it and began shaking in excitement as he revealed what was there. His first reaction was amazing. He immediately grabbed the package and held it up to Missy and said, "See Mom they do still make them. Santa was able to find it." Missy and I just about bust a gut laughing. Wacky kid. Well anyways that's the story of Josiah and Buzz.
