For a couple of years now Drew's favorite color has been green. If there is a choice of color for something you can bet he will pick the green one. So I guess it shouldn't have surprised me that he decided it was time for the Milliorn house to "go green".
In Drew's class at preschool they have been talking about how to help the Earth. They evidently have talked a lot about recycling, and practice it at school. He has been telling us for a few weeks that we need to start doing it at home. (No, we haven't been recycling. Yes, I know we have curb side pickup in Mansfield. Yes, I know we are bad people.) So last night we finally stopped being lazy and got out our recycling bin for Drew. He told us that this had to be his project, so he went around to all the trash cans and got out all the water bottles and soda cans and put them in our bin in the garage. He made sure first to empty them all out... including the almost full bottles of water Andy and I had on our nightstands. I guess maybe we should have been supervising a little bit better.
First of many trips to the bin.
How many water bottles can a little boy carry?
He was proud of his hard work.
But he was a little disappointed that our bin was wide and green and not tall and blue like the one at school.
