However, with some special planning, people in one little boy's neighborhood still celebrated his 7th birthday!



Calvin's cool car parade was held near Camelback and 32nd Place after his mom, Courtney Lively posted on social media that her son loves cars and would love to see the best of the valley.



"I thought the Nissan Skyline would be more quiet but it actually almost exploded my ears," Calvin said.



A long line of loud, luxury cars flooded the streets to celebrate Calvin's 7th birthday to lift his spirits and keep social distancing in mind.



Courtney says, she was absolutely blown away by the turnout that simply started as a Facebook post.



"I just put a note out there to our friends and just said, hey if you can drive by in a cool car, we were going to have a car-themed birthday but with coronavirus, we had to cancel," she said. "Somehow it got shared with car clubs around town, and so many drove by on his birthday to cheer him up and next thing we know it took on a life of its own."



Calvin was so overwhelmed by all the automobiles, beautifully driving by perfect strangers all keeping to the theme.



"I don't know I started out happy and then a lot of the cars just got loud, earphones right, buddy," Calvin and Courtney said.



It's a tough time for everyone and even harder when happy moments are met with compromise but all of us including the youngsters like Calvin are getting through it.



"We are amazed and touched and the clubs that made Calvin an honorary member and I know this is going to affect Calvin positively for the rest of his life," Courtney added.



Car enthusiasts really made Calvin's 7th birthday one to remember even with social distancing, driving everyone apart.
