This week our children helped us clean up a church building. At one point, a garbage became incredibly heavy so we asked Maggie and Tim to take it out together. When they returned, Tim had in his hand a roll of garbage bags that had been under the bag they dumped out.
He innocently asked if they were supposed to be garbage, to which we replied, "Thanks for bringing them back in."
In a very giddy tone, he responded, "Good, when they fell in, I knew we had to get them out."
"Wait a minute. Tim, did those fall in the dumpster?"
"Yes"
" How did you get them out?"
" Maggie gave me a boost and I dove in. It smelled nasty!"
"Tim, are you kidding me?! Don't touch anything! Get to the bathroom and don't touch anything until you are fully sanitized head to toe."
I never thought our kids would be dumpster divers. There's another parental hope dashed...
