You'll Never Guess Who This Little Girl Asked to Meet For Her Birthday — or What Happened Next

-


A little girl named Brooklyn had a very surprising request for her birthday — she wanted to finally meet a man she's been admiring from afar: her family's garbage collector, Delvar. Or as they've taken to calling him, "our favorite awesome smiley garbage man."

Each Thursday for the past year, Brooklyn, who lives in Bloomington, IL, has anxiously awaited the garbage truck's arrival at their house.
 
In a Facebook post, Brooklyn's mom wrote:
It started with waving from the window, then we had to try and be outside to wave, and when we missed the truck driving by the house, I'd drive around the neighborhood to find the garbage truck and wave on our way out the door in the mornings. Every Thursday, my heart is full when I see the joy that our amazing garbage man brings Brooklyn when he honks and waves at her with a BIG smile.
To make Brooklyn's birthday — which, as luck would have it, was on a Thursday — extraspecial, they decided it was time they finally met their garbage collector. Brooklyn wrapped up a cupcake and waited for his arrival. When he rounded the corner of their street, Brooklyn's mom thanked him for his upbeat demeanor and revealed how much it meant to her daughter.

To her surprise, Delvar admitted that he, too, looks forward to their weekly visits. What he revealed next will leave you in a puddle of mush . . .
He said that he has a meeting every Thursday morning and always tries to get out of there in a hurry so that he can make sure to see us every week.
We're so glad Brooklyn got her birthday wish, and when Thursday rolls around again, we can't help but get excited about her run-in, full of honking and waving, with her "favorite awesome smiley garbage man."

"Do you remember on Thursday, 24 March 2016, we talked about world's 10 best wedding destination? Here's another  amazing places for vacation."  Want to drop 80% of the average U.S. annual income in one night? Or maybe get some shuteye where Bill Clinton and Pavarotti have previously laid their heads (on separate occasions)? The Middle East's most opulent hotel suites can deliver. With acres of gold leaf and chandeliers at every turn, there's opulence and decor to make Liberace blush.  Throw in Jacuzzis, cinemas, butlers and fine dining, and those cavernous 12,000-square-foot chambers can soon fill up. Sure the prices are high, but the money buys jaw-dropping views over sights including the Bosphorus, the Gulf of Oman and the world's tallest building.  And who knows, the hotels might even throw in a toothbrush for guests who forget theirs. Here are nine of the most extravagant nights that platinum credit cards can buy:...
