Krystal Preston thought her 13-year-old son was playing a joke when he said he bought her a car. The single mom of three burst into tears when she realized it was actually true. Her hard-working son traded his Xbox and did yard work to buy his struggling mom a 1999 Chevrolet Metro.Preston told TODAY Parents she felt “proud, excited, overwhelmed, shocked, inspired, moved, heartwarming—every loving word in the dictionary you could possibly give."about her son’s gift along with photos of him next to her new car . The social media post has been shared more than 2,000 times.
Preston is newly single and struggling to find work."We're trying to adjust and start over," she said, adding that she's"stressed out trying to find a job, trying to find a vehicle and make ends meet.""It’s natural for him. He just wants to help. To him, it’s not a big deal,” Preston said. In 2017, Preston said William was recognized for his community cleanup work, including helping mow a senior citizen’s lawn. Preston remembered how the weeds were as tall as William when he started working on the neighbor's yard."He mowed it down and it looks super nice and he does that for anyone he can,” Preston said. She shared that William finds broken lawnmowers and fixes them and uses them.
