A 13-year-old boy named Simon begged his mom, Annie, to give him her last $13 to start a business. Despite their poverty and living in an old trailer, Simon believed in hard work and determination—values instilled by his mother. With the money, Simon started a garden business, growing and selling produce. As the business flourished, they moved into a rented home, and Annie quit her janitorial job to help him.
Eventually, Simon partnered with a wealthy farmer, Alex, expanding their operations and exporting produce. Two years later, Simon saved enough to build his mother a $2 million home. Annie was overwhelmed with pride, realizing her dream of a better life had come true, thanks to her son’s perseverance. Despite his success, Simon stayed humble, tending to the garden that started it all.

But what we love our kids is that they are honest to the core and always speak their mind.
