A four-year-old boy in Colorado Springs, Colorado recently had his dream of becoming a UPS driver come true thanks to a campaign by UPS called "Your Wishes Delivered."
Carson Kight's fascination with the package delivery company started years ago. As a baby, he couldn’t drink anything with milk protein in it, so special formula had to be sent to his house often.
A UPS driver named Ernie usually made the deliveries. Carson initially began watching Ernie from the window, but when he was two-and-a-half, Ernie asked Carson if he would like to see the truck.
Since then, whenever Ernie stopped at the home, he would spend a little time with Carson and show him the truck. It seems that Carson's interest in UPS prompted the company to give him his own, smaller version of the brown truck.
Last month, Ernie delivered a scaled-down version of a UPS truck for the boy. Carson’s reaction to the surprise gift was priceless.
Now, he’s using his new truck to deliver baked treats to his neighbors. Speaking of Ernie, Carson’s mom Karen remarked “He's just one of those guys who, to me, is very special and has become a very special role model in Carson's life.”
Ernie has since been placed on a different route.
