THANK YOU Olive Garden bday update <3 tysm

I took my birthday boy to olive garden thanks to this sub and I just want to say thank you so so much! We haven't been out to eat since before the pandemic started so this was so much fun! My son was so HYPED when we pulled in, like... He has been talking about olive garden and their alfredo commercial for literally weeks <3 He prob ate like 20 breadsticks and super loved the alfredo lol he said it was better than mine which he never says any food is better than mine bc he's sweet, so he must have rly loved it haha they even sang happy birthday and he got some kind of chocolate brownie lasagna thing for dessert lol we had hella leftover food and I had enough to get him a take home alfredofor later or tomorrow or something too and give the bad ass server a good tip since she was so sweet ๐Ÿฅบ๐Ÿ’– I can't put into words how much seeing my baby boy happy means to me, y'all are THE BEST! This was such a rad birthday for him + he thought it was so cool that a bunch of strangers online wanted to help make his day special. I appreciate every single one of you so so much ๐Ÿ’–

Yay, I remember this post from yesterday! So glad you all had a good time. You seem like an awesome parent, OP. Tell the little guy happy birthday from this Reddit stranger!

Thank you so much! It's so easy to feel like a bad parent when you can't do the fun stuff for ur kids, ya know? I felt like a frigging superhero today tho lol even tho all I did was ask for help haha

The point is, you made the effort to ask for help and accepted it! Thatโ€™s a parenting win in my book.
