Tuesday Morning

We can't go anywhere on Tuesdays before the recycling truck comes. Ben waits by the window when he hears the distant sound of the truck making it's way to the top of our street. He dashes out the front door where the recycling man gives Ben a sticker and "Go Green" crayons. Ben stands watching him, star struck as he dumps the bins in the truck. He pauses to give the wide eyed Ben a high five and a "see you next week Buddy". Ben proudly wears his sticker on his chest all day. It is the highlight of his week. Mommy is more diligently saving our boxes and cans!
