Isaiah Tuckett, now a 14-year-old, had wanted to visit Disney World for the longest time but his family kept refusing.
¡°A lot of it was probably financial. We just couldn¡¯t afford it,¡± his father Dan Tuckett told local news portal KARE11.
While mom, Cheri Tuckett, and dad, Dan Tuckett, are people who work hard for everything they have, they simply couldn¡¯t take their son to Disney World. Isaiah didn¡¯t crib about it but decided to work hard, just like his parents, in order to get what he wanted. His way of working towards his goal was using his talent of baking cupcakes.

He already had an idea about baking and selling his cupcakes for $20 (Rs. 1386) for a dozen, he managed to gather enough money to pay for air tickets, hotel and Disney World tickets for his mom, dad, sister, brother, sister-in-law and little nephew. And he did all this in a year!
Talking about his achievement, he said:
¡°I felt like it should be a family event. I was surprised I did it in a year.¡±

The road to ticking this one wish off his bucket list wasn¡¯t easy. While the orders for Isaiah¡¯s cupcakes poured in and even at his age, he catered to birthday parties, confirmations, graduations, reunions, funerals and weddings.
In fact, he ended up making 750 cupcakes over just a weekend for a big order that was meant for a high school prom.
Kids this young who have an undying spirit are truly inspirational!
