Notes from The Square Deal Inbox: One Customer’s Heartwarming Story

It was a new experience for our family, having a third birthday for Amos at Wendy's. Our family historically has birthday parties at home, where a multitude of kids and entire families spill into our neighboring parking lot, and chaos breeds happy little people.

As much as I longed to have a party, deep down I knew it would only be for me.
