One mom, based in Greenville, South Carolina, couldn't hel but oblige.
"When I asked Sebastian what he wanted for his birthday, he didn't hesitate. He said he wanted a 'chocolate UPS cake and a million people at my party!'" she told People. "Of course, I couldn't quite pull off a million guests, but in a crazy way, his celebration ended up being shared with well over the million people he asked for!"
The birthday bash soon went viral on TikTok, amassing millions of views. "Having a 'normal' birthday party theme with an autistic son," Grant wrote across the video. "Level: impossible."
UPS Birthday Party
The mom pulled out all of the stops to make sure her son had a very special day.
"I went to the store and found graduation decorations in dark brown and gold that felt perfect for the theme," says Grant. "While I was doing that, my mom went to our local UPS store and explained that we were throwing a UPS-themed birthday party for Sebastian."
"The employees were so sweet! They brought logos, packaging materials and anything they could spare for decorations, all free of charge," she continues. "They even sent my mom home with UPS pens to give him. My mom wrapped his gifts to look like real UPS packages, which made it feel even more official."
The whole family had a blast sharing his birthday with him. He even got his wish of a million people thanks to TikTok and his mom.
"Our whole family was just happy to celebrate him! He was the first grandchild and first nephew, so he holds a special place in everyone's heart," says Grant. "He's also the sweetest big brother to our precious daughters, Ava, 5, and Chloe, 3. He's always protective, gentle and thoughtful with them. He is absolutely deserving of the party turning out how he wanted, and of all the love he got on his video!"
