The Purple Dump Truck

So at the gas station down the street from our house a man parks his purple dump truck.  Owen has a serious affection for this purple dump truck.  He asks to see it every time we leave the house or are coming home and he knows we will pass it.  He likes to keep tabs on whether it is there or not.  A couple of months ago we went weeks without seeing the purple dump truck and mommy and daddy feared the owner/driver had moved it to another location.  Luckily he showed back up one day.  Driving by the purple dump truck even gets used a reward for good behavior at the store or running errands.  Daddy fears we drive through the parking lot so often that they will soon call the police to investigate what we are doing.  Mommy wondered if the purple dump truck visits birthday parties!  Here is a picture of Owen's beloved purple dump truck so he will forever remember this time in his life when the purple dump truck was so important to him.
