Truck Driver Takes His Daughter’s Doll on a Wild Adventure
What do you do when your nine-year-old daughter hands you her beloved doll and declares that you’re on babysitting duty? Why, you take that doll along for the ride, of course! The life of a nine-year-old can be tough, and sometimes, a doll needs a little TLC while the kiddo enjoys some downtime with her crayons and cartoons. One dad, Jake Turner, understood this perfectly and decided to bring his daughter’s doll on his trucking journey — as any good father would.
Nine-year-old Mia is one fortunate girl. Her doll, “Ellie,” was eager to hit the road with her dad, Jake, who humorously referred to himself as Ellie’s “grandpa.” Mia asked her dad to take Ellie along, and he happily obliged. “We thought it would be fun to share some photos from our trip,” Jake explained in a post on his company’s Facebook page. “I didn’t want Mia thinking I just tossed Ellie in the sleeper and forgot about her.”
“We were hauling grain from our farm to the local market, so I brought Ellie with me,” Jake told a popular parenting blog. “The look on my father’s face was priceless when I emerged from the truck with Ellie that morning. I said, ‘Your granddaughter asked me to babysit!’ I even snapped a picture with my dad and Ellie to show Mia we were keeping our promise.”
The takeaway here? If your nine-year-old entrusts you with her doll, you step up to the plate. Just make sure she doesn’t find out you treated Ellie to a lunch of Coke and Slim Jims!
