A lot of birthdays have been canceled due to the coronavirus pandemic but this 4-year-old’s was not. A kindhearted father who has worked with FedEx for 10 years surprised his daughter, Ava, for her birthday with a FedEx truck parade.

"To a 4-year-old, they really know it's their birthday -- she was into it," dad Oliver of Brook Park told "Good Morning America." "It made me feel bad, she's such a good kid. I had to do something to make up for it.”

Ava was so thrilled to see the trucks she even fell over but the reaction they got from her was worth it to her parents. They are planning to reschedule her birthday once this is all over.
