Cody's Christmas Wish

Cody got his Christmas wish
Santa visited him
He passed the CDL test
And those license will serve him
He can drive a huge truck now
Out on the open road
Hauling what cargo 
Only heavens knows
They won't turn him aloose
On the road all by himself yet(aren't we all glad)
He has hours with a trainer
Then he will have to ride double
Sleeping in a camper
Sharing such a tiny space 
With a person who is unknown
Heaven only help him
To get a job close to home
He's going to make some money
So he can bring a woman from 
Afar like Issac in the Bible 
Whose bride came from a distant place
Lord help him to respect her
Let love shine from his face  

Cody called yesterday eve and said that he got his CDLs.
He still has more things to accomplish and have orientation with the company of hire.

what a wonderful poem for your Cody, Sara. I hope it all works out. Joe refused to ever drive doubles again when his first experience was with a PSYCHO!!
