Straily never knew how far life's highway could take her until her dream for
her children helped her find out...

driving a tractor-trail er.
3 years passed, Sheri
fell in love, 4 and had three 5 . Because she wanted to be 6 to home, she changed her job for a
desk one at the trucking company.
But one day after work, as
Sheri 7 her kids playing, she began to 8 :"I want them to achieve so
