The school year is coming to an end and im completely exhausted. To add to that, my kids got sick and have been passing it around. My youngest is having a hard time eating and all they wanted was Panda express noodles. It was late, I'm tired, but if it'll make her feel better then why not?

I attempted to order on the app first. It kept saying that it couldn't be delivered to me or there was a payment issue. I was so frustrated. I didn't want to make the drive, but finally decided to suck it up and go.

I get there and they are busy for a Sunday night. I give them my order, 5 large chow mein, a 2 item combo, and 2 large meats. The employee stopped me and told me that a family dinner would save me money and give me the same amount of chow mein.

When the manager saw what she was doing, she stopped her and said it would be more beneficial to do a tray of chow mein and then a family meal.

I got the whole tray, they substituted the one chow mein in the family meal for another meat, and I still got my 2 dinner combo.

I went to pay, and not only did I get more food, but it was $30 dollars cheaper. I thanked all of them profusely. I told the manager that my kids were sick and all they wanted was the chow mein. She smiled, said she understood, and was glad she could help.

When I got home, I realized she put two extra sides of chow mein for me and about 30 cookies. sometimes I feel so lost, like I'm drowning in parenthood, and her small act of kindness meant so much to me. I'm teary-eyed even typing this out.

I can't remember names, but I wrote corporate to tell them how incredible that store is. I hope it helps them in some way, or it just makes their day like they made mine.

Thank you, kind stranger.
