My Mom is a Recycle Driver

Image from Tree-Hugger --- Thanks!


Being a mom comes with a huge package deal, with lots of surprises and some perks too :-) Lots of decision has to be made impromptu and mom's have to be on the go all time. With a huge rear view mirror, always wondering and keeping a watch about whats happening in the background, even when kids are not around :-) Phew !!! No wonder its said MOMs work 24 X 7...dreams can be pleasant or it could be a nightmare. I Would say Angles & Demons :-)

When my son Nishant was 3 years old, I asked him why he troubles me always. His answer was " Amma, I trouble you because I have lots of job for you" Hmm! I thought is it just a wise comment, can I take it as a grain of salt. Well, I guess not.

Nishant is going to be 6 this month. He has been studying about Keeping the Planet clean and recycling. One of my friend told him that he can make money if he picked up litter lying on the street. Well, what impact does that have on him or me ??? When I'm driving him around, he would throw a fit in the car whenever he saw CANs and plastic covers on the street. He would want me to stop the car, right then and there, so he could pick it up. I wouldn't be able to stop the car in the middle of a busy street, can I ?? The other day we were driving back from SFO and we stopped for a quick lunch in a rest area. He found some trashed plates and cups on the street. He picked everything up and brought it back to the van. This disturbed me...and i asked him why he was doing this, and he said he wanted to clean up and make money. I had to explain to him, the difference between trash and recycling stuff.

We walk to school some days and on his way to school he picked up a littered soda can. I asked him to leave it where it was and get to the school. He asked me, to pick it up on my way back home and trash it at home. Since I was continuing on my morning walk, it just slipped my mind. When I went to pick him up, his 1st question was..." Did you pick that CAN up" I said Ooops!!. He made sure I drove by that spot and he picked up the CAN and brought it home and dropped it in the re-cycle bin :-)

He wants to be a Litter Police and I am his Recycle Truck Driver :-)

Now i know, what will keep him occupied for this summer, " Beach Cleaning !!!!"

Everyday is Beautiful and its a NEW Experience !!
