Lance Rufus greets best friend James Jackson every week in Plano, Texas
The two struck up a friendship after the Rufus family moved in last July
Lance is excited to wheel his own recycling bin to the curb on Mondays
He also dressed up as James for Halloween and wore his reflective vest
James said it was 'sweet to see someone who really likes what you do'
Many of us know just how annoying taking the trash to the curb can be every week, but every Monday two-year-old Lance Rufus takes his families trash out with a smile!
Lance rushes outside to meet up with his best friend, garbage man James Jackson.
He and Lance became friends a year ago, and even have matching recycling bins and vests. 'It's like, he's eating breakfast, he hears it, he stops and says, "Garbage truck!" We have to get him out of the high chair and run to the back,' his mom said.
Each week, Lance pushes his own miniature recycling bin to the curb while he waits for his friend James. You can already guess what his costume was for Halloween!
'A youngster that's so excited...I said, "Man, is he going to be there again?" I would always wonder,' James said. He's been working as a garbage man for four years, and gets excited whenever he stops at Lance's home. 'It makes it all sweet when you see someone who really likes what you do.
