At the ripe age of one, Swen has begun to dream about his future. He has set a goal of what he would like to be when he grows up. He is not wishy-washy, and he has never changed his mind about his future career path.
Before I let everyone in on his future, I want to remind you that all jobs are important. Society needs janitors, grocery store cashiers, plumbers, etc. These are all jobs that many of us don't view as "ideal professions," but it would be hard to function without them. It just so happens that Swen's dream job is one of these. It is a job that most of us wouldn't want to do, yet one that is critically important. Are you ready? Swen's dream is to become a garbage man! He loves the garbage more than anything in the world. He doesn't care about size, shape, color, or smell. Any garbage can is heaven to him.
At home, all he wants is the garbage cans in the kitchen or the bathroom. They are both up on counters now, but on very special days, the garbage comes down with a fresh bag, and Swen gets to play with it all he wants!

At every restaurant we go to, the first thing Swen finds is the garbage can. I know this is gross, but he's unstoppable. He needs to practice to gain experience for his future.
Guess where else there are garbage cans? The park! Who needs slides, swings, and climbing walls when there are garbage cans around? At every park, Swen immediately finds garbage to throw away. Why would I stand in the way of him saving the planet?
There you have it. Swen will be a garbage man when he grows up. I am so proud of him and his dreams. Next time you see a garbage man, think of baby Swen and remember that all jobs are important!
