Dumpster Diver

      I’m not the kind of Mom who keeps every little drawing or A+ paper that my children bring home.  Now with that said, I am a very sentimental person though when it comes to awards or journals, or when I feel a drawing is just too cute; I stash those away in scrapbooks.  But apparently, this does not jive well with Cameron.  He doesn’t want to get rid of anything.  More times than I can count I have thrown away something that he has done and 9 times out of 10 that paper suddenly resurrects itself.  It doesn’t matter if whatever I have thrown away is buried in the bottom of the trash, he WILL dig and find it.  The funny thing is I never see him do it!  For example, just the other day he brought home a drawing he drafted of Captain Underpants.  It sat on the counter for several days until I finally pitched it in the garbage.  Two days later, it was magically sitting on the snack bar.  It cracks me up!  And the funny part is he doesn’t call me out on throwing anything away.  It is all done in silence.  He is definitely a Dumpster Diver!
