I expected Creed to get over his trash/garbage truck obsession about three years ago....it is still in full force. He counts down the days until it is garbage day (for reals he literally does count the days). His preschool teacher lets him take in her garbage cans and watch the garbage guy that comes a day earlier than it does in our neighborhood. His cousin took him on a cousin date to empty the trash cans at the restraunt where she works and he LOVED it and is still talking about it. In order to get him to hold still for hair cuts I just put on YouTube garbage truck videos...its the only time he really sits still. At the end of 2015 it was announced that St George would finally institute curbside recycling and Creed was out of control excited. He kept watching and waiting for the recycle can to be dropped off at our house. He watched the cans be delivered to other neighborhoods and literally curbside recycling is ALL he talked about. I actually think his obsession is pretty funny but it was to the point that I was seriously going a little crazy with all the recycle talk.Finally the can was delivered...It is still all he talks about.
He is totally a recycle nazi. I can't throw ANY thing away that could be recycled...If I do I get a lecture and he takes it out of the trash and moves it to the recycle bin.
The first day the picked up the recycling he followed the truck around the block until Anthony the recycle man stopped and chatted with him and offered to let him climb in the recycle truck to check it out....He is on first name basis with both the garbage man and recycle man....they are his BFFs...SO if you ever need a recycling advocate or the best garbage boy ever I know where you can find him....and he is really cute!
The day the can FINALLY came...he didn't stop smiling and moving it and talking about it...
