Babies know when they’re in trouble. They also know that when they’re in trouble, they should listen (or at least pretend) to their angry parents until they’re forgiven.

This little boy with rice all over his face was being scolded for throwing his vegetables, but even though he knew he had to listen to his dad, he was way too sleepy.

We have to commend him for his efforts, though — he was trying SO hard to stay awake.

Bravo, little man, and thank you for being such an adorable human being.
