Garbage collectors were picking up our trash I had just put out as my wife walked back into our house. A particular barrel was very heavy.

"Lady, we can't take this," one man called out. "It's way over the weight limit."

My wife turned her eight-month-pregnant figure toward him. "It didn't seem that heavy when I carried it out," she said.

Without another word, the man emptied the barrel into the truck.
