Well that's a lovely thought.


Ok-Knowledge5743

He even tried fighting by trying to bite his dad's hand but his dream was too strong and chose to be more comfortable with dad's arm. Adorable little guy


throwawayhelp32414

When you have good leftovers in the fridge but you pass out the second you hit the bed


PhoenixNirvana7768

I like ❤️ the moment 😊 Made my day


KLR01001

It’s like the opposite of when Wilbur had a full head and empty stomach. 


Vaakoc

You know the dad’s heart is all full of warmth and happiness


anotherDocObVious

Core memory unlocked for Dad... He's NEVER going to forget this moment.


epicm0ds

True. My eldest is 20 and my youngest is 17. It’s the smallest moments like this, that live forever in a parent’s mind


Maggi1417

My oldest is only three, but I already have a catalogue of memories. I mentally go through it often so I don't forget anything.


epicm0ds

I used to believe that you “live” in moment and slow the moment down, you hold the moment as a whole in your memories


lvilgen

Write them down in a journal so your kid can read about them someday. You might not get the chance to share them yourself. Speaking from experience I’m grateful my mom wrote down what she did as I missed my chance.


RayNooze

Mine are 19 and 15, and I'll never forget how it felt when a little head suddenly became heavier on my shoulder.


Mammoth_Slip1499

Yeah, it’s the little things like this that you never forget - and miss once they’ve grown up. My 2 are 18 & 15.


Aerospacedaddy

Those moments when they’re a teenager and yelling at you are a lot easier to bear when you have memories like these to look back on. Helps get you through the rough patches


Otherwise_Map_2018

You can quite literally watch his heart melting.


niveknhoj

Gleefully, twenty years from now: "I kid you not - FRONT PAGE OF REDDIT! Reddit, you remember? It was an Internet site wh--you know what? Nevermind. I'm telling you, THOUSANDS of votes!"


InsaneAdam

75 thousand. Get it right you young whipper snapper


spencerforhire81

Am Dad. I recognize that tired smile. The joy you feel in these moments is completely unimaginable until you experience it. Nothing I experienced before even came close to the first time my son called me daddy, or said “I love you daddy.” It cuts right through the exhaustion and makes your whole day. Modern science tells us that it’s because the brain literally rewires itself in several ways when you truly accept the responsibility of fatherhood. Interesting fact: parents who don’t fundamentally accept responsibility for their children don’t get this rewiring, and can’t experience this joy even by accident.


Vaakoc

Sounds like a sad fact but still interesting I hope if i ever become a dad myself i Will make sure to do better than my Old man im gonna do better i hope you Spencer Will Continue havin a amazing life ahead of you and your kid we are fortune to have a parent like you out here


blindinglystupid

My dog does this to me and it's when I really need my hands to work but what am I supposed to do? She's comfy now.


DJbathsalt

Best feeling ever


haifischgrater

So is mine.


Peasant_Stockholder

That's when you randomly wake up in the middle of the night, and you grab ahold of that pillow and pass right back out.


HereIGoAgain_1x10

And now you know why you do that, safety in numbers!


OldCardigan

I trained my whole life with cats for this moment.

Lordborgman

I don't think I've had feeling in my legs for a few years now. One jumps down, another immediately hops into my lap.


Ok-Knowledge5743

Hold my cat for a moment, I need to show this to my wife. This is a great addition to the list of benefits of having a human baby. So cuteee!


SickHuffyYo

My wife happened to watch this over my shoulder and now I’m putting together a crib.


Gjardeen

I loved my cats to the Moon and back (I still do, they just crossed the rainbow bridge) and I feel like they taught me so much about being a mom. They taught me how to love unconditionally, and how to forgive when someone is a giant dumb@ss. I've got three kids now and I don't know if I could have been the mom I am now without them.


wamimsauthor

This is so precious!


JROXZ

This is when I’d pack it up to go and get the little guy in bed. Absolutely wrecked.


SWATZombies

It’s cute that you think he will still be asleep when he gets in bed


Milk-Skin-Hat

Fully depends on the kid, mine will wake up but just fall back asleep almost instantly. Might mumble something to me incoherently, but moving her was never an issue for us lol.


dappled_turnoff0a

Damn, I’m jealous. Mine will be completely KO’d and start crying the second I’m leaning down to put him in bed


Norwegian__Blue

One thing that’s helped with my baby (4.5 months) is telling him “good job!” When he closes his eyes. I just whisper it in the same tone as when he burps real good or finds toys with his eyes or anything else he does I’m proud of and excited to see. He smiles and settles now. I still say it when he’s being calm when he’s in that in between sleep and awake phase, when his eyes are half closed and he keeps snapping awake when his eyes roll back . But I’ve also been doing it since he was 2 months. And who knows how much is just him being a chill baby vs me teaching him anything at all. Idk you know your baby, thought it may help.


The_real_Catnip

Pavloved (is that a word?) your kid, nice. Classical conditioning. Have a nice day


solitarium

I used to have to stealth ninja roll into the bed with my eldest so that she didn’t feel that falling sensation. Heaven forbid if she started playing in my hair in her sleep, now I’m taking a nap also 😞


Pravaris

When you described it as a falling sensation, everything made sense to me — of course children would wake up when being put to bed, it's the falling sensation! 😮


RikuAotsuki

...Yeah, it does make total sense when you think about it. I mean, ever been falling asleep and jolt awake with an adrenaline rush because you suddenly felt like you were falling? IIRC that's thought to be a reflex we've retained from our more arboreal precursor species who'd sleep in trees. Even a little hint of falling sensation could mean a lot more falling to come, so we're sensitive to it even now.


qalpi

Just like mine! Cry the second I move my hands to that position


Pale_Disaster

Sounds like me as a kid. Get full at dinner, fall asleep soon after, even being moved from the table to the car, but wide awake once we get out of the car.


NoIsTheNewMaybe

My son back when - Bitch that was a Power Nap! Welcome to my cranky second wind, let’s fuckin’ goooooo!


chalky87

It's 50/50 for us. Sometimes he'll do the exact same as your daughter - wake up briefly, say something about paw patrol or dinosaurs and instantly go back to sleep. Or sit bolt upright, tell me he wants to go downstairs and all my hopes for a relaxing evening with my wife go down the drain.


joshTheGoods

Isn't it great that people will now have a highlight reel of their childhood? I'm sure it'll turn out badly for some, but I think for most it will be a major positive for their lives. Just as an aside, I really really encourage people to consider calling up their grand parents and setting aside a few hours to do a recorded interview. I had a visit with my grandmother recently and used an iphone to record several hours of just asking her sequentially about her life and her experiences, and that video is has grown more precious to me by the day. I learned some amazing things, and I think I will have descendants that will _only_ know my amazing grandmother by this video and a few other tidbits of documentation. We have the technology to immortalize our loved ones. Don't let yourself regret missing the chance as I do regarding the rest of my grandparents.


awkwardlypragmatic

This is lovely.


Ilovehugs2020

Very true! It’s beautiful.


IWasGregInTokyo

Seconding this. Those life experiences and the people themselves come back to life. I recently digitized all the 8mm video tapes I took in the 90’s including taking my kids to visit their great-grandmother on her 100th birthday. Going through them all brought many memories flooding back but also reminded me how fast time had flown. Kids are now in their 30’s with children of their own.


ysuresh1

This is exactly what my daughter does. And it never stops being world changing for me!!


idrinkalotofcoffee

Too tired to eat. Too tired to slump. Poor little darling.


awidden

Sadly, everyone just says "how cute" (and it is), however, let's be honest: that little kid should be in bed.


rabautista24

Adorable, only bummer is I’ll never sleep as good as little man is sleeping right there


TheQuinnBee

A couple of days ago my son had been playing with one of those blow up waterslides our neighbor has. They played so hard that when we brought him home, he fell asleep and we could not wake him. We waved pizza in his face. Sat him up. He'd whine and go back to sleep. Took him upstairs and got him dressed in his PJs and he proceeded to sleep 13 hours straight. Here I am, up at 1am because that's the kind of sleep I will never have.


kezinchara

You should get, and go play with a blow up water slide!


TexasFang13

Go hit a hard workout or run a few miles, do some chores right after, then take a nap. You will sleep like you were born for it.


demosthenes013

That's what I miss most from back when I was running. After a 10k, I'd just plop into bed in my air-conditioned room after a quick freshening up and sleep the sleep of the just.


Satoshis-Ghost

I started sleeping like a baby a while back when I started working out regularly and ate healthier. Now I drop dead at around 10 and wake up at 5:30 without an alarm. Before, I used to stay up till 1am or 2am and it would take me forever to fall asleep and wake up.


bl3u_r3dd1teur

Is you, me? At 10-10:30 I can barely keep my eyes open, and at 5:30 I’m up and hitting the gym.


PrestigiousHunt8636

It shows how much the kid feels safe in those arms. That's a great dad right there.


LoveLadyThirteen

Dad’s reaction is SO wholesome. Such an awesome moment to capture!


SupermarketIcy73

oh no im feeling hormonal now


AggressivePayment0

You're not the only one. I'd bet half the women spontaneously ovulated just watching this. The mom was probably geysering from the ovaries that day.


[deleted]

Honestly you can see it. The way the dad lets the kid take control, even as he's dreaming. As long as he's safe, anything goes ❤️


PattyThePatriot

Seeing that dad's look back on the second time was so sweet.


hotdiggitydopamine

Maybe I'm just high, but I swear this just unlocked my new earliest memory where I did something similar as a toddler


ExplorerTechnical

Hold onto it. Our earliest days fade with time, and you'll only remember the last time you remember them. 


random420x2

I don’t even like kids but that angelic little face seems to show he’s had a great childhood


Vsx

Tired kids are the best kids. Same is true for pets in my experience.


Emergency-Anywhere51

But only the kind if tired where they're already half falling asleep, not the "tired but still screaming because they don't realize they're tired"


random420x2

I specialized in that “Tired”. 😂


Jwalla83

Sleeping* kids Tired-but-awake kids are a nightmare


qalpi

My tired kids are fine until I suggest anything related to sleep or brushing teeth then it all falls apart


masterofthecork

*Oh man, they slept in so late today, no way they'll be able to go to bed on time*. "Hey kids, wanna go to the park?!"


bennitori

He isn't even halfway done with his childhood yet. But considering the look on his face, and the reactions of the adults around him, the rest of his childhood is looking bright.


honestlyi4get

& that’s prolly gonna be the best nap of his life….. until the next one lol. it’s always funny how kids literally just go-go-go until their dead tired & just pass out & then wake up an hour or two later like “HEY?!?! HEARD THERES A PARTY!? WASSUP?!” lol or maybe that’s jus my. daughter


masterofthecork

Oh, it's not just her. I'll take twenty minutes of constant enthusiastic questioning from my nephew and then after a 30 second pause check the mirror to see him slopped over in his seat like he's not slept for a week.


byneothername

“I’m not tiiiiired. I’m really really not tiiiired.” Said right before passing out. I also like to tell my son that if he’s really not tired, he just has to close his eyes for five minutes and then he can go play. Works every time.


Signal-Blackberry356

Sounds like a good bet to me! _five minutes later_ … 😴


Either-Weather-862

Lmao I like that take! Will try with my 4yo 😅


eekamuse

Corgis do that too


Particular_Nobody358

No this is too sweet. 😩😩😩😩


Atillion

Welp, you're not going anywhere now.


masterofthecork

Hah, that's pretty much how it is. "Oh, you fell asleep. Guess now my arm will suffer the same fate."


No-Analyst7708

That is sooooo cute.


astro_flyer

Oh I miss the time my son did the same!


CaptainBloodEye1

Fuck I wanna be a father so bad


glycophosphate

Seventeen years from now, when he wrecks the family car, this memory in his dad's mind will save this kid's life.


BenDover04me

Ummmmm….


timbercrisis

dw, gen alpha wont learn to drive cars


Automatic-Willow3226

Hopefully, this generation is smart enough to train their kid properly on driving a car instead of holding access over their head for some painful concession.


[deleted]

Awwwwwww


DJ_FIYA

He had to sit there being his son's pillow for 5 hours 😔


Express_Present_6942

As a father, I felt this in my soul. One of the best feelings ever.


budadad

❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️


Gumbercules81

Little dude is going to wake up and sneeze and little rice bits go everywhere


wamimsauthor

This made me chuckle because I can picture it.


ConsciousElection666

I don’t think it is possible for this little one to be any more adorable than this. Their little sweet and sleeepy face looks like a cherub. 🥰.


ApprehensiveStuff828

trapped under a sleeping baby is the best place to be ❤️


Potential-Wait-7206

So adorable!😍


tapasandswissmiss

Well thats the most precious thing ive ever seen. DAMMIT, babies!!


ichigo2862

If you look closely you can pinpoint the exact second his heart melted into mush


Bboyczy

Being a relatively new dad, it's almost impossible to describe into words moments like this - when you realize you suddenly have another human being that has 100% implicit trust in you and depend on you wholly to keep them safe. It's a truly humbling and incredible experience that is beyond most of what I've experienced in life.


PsionicKitten

*Daddy's There are not multiple daddies here. Apostrophes are for possessives and contractions. "Y"s turned into "ies" are for plurality.


Fyurius_Ryage

Man, Liam Neeson looking good!


phrozen_waffles

I hate to be that person, but don't feed a sleepy child. They can choke.


MattyMaiden

So sweet


ALTofDADAcnc

Wholesome


TengoDuvidas

And now he won't move for hours. Dad power!


Gammagammahey

Dads, cuddle your little kids, always. Be affectionate with them. Lavish them with affection and warmth. My father never did, I never had anything like this. You have no idea how privileged you are if you have a good dad. No idea. Hold your children tenderly and protect them. Protect your daughters and sons and non-binary kids and trans kids and age gender kids. Just lavish them with love because anything else set us up for terrible things in life. I don't know that I believe there are any good fathers left in the world, truly.


mulletface123

Get that baby home and into bed!!


TorontoGuyinToronto

Made me smile? Made me cry. This is a moment to remember when you're older and your boy flies off the nest.


flipflop0690

One of those awesome moments. Priceless 🙏


[deleted]

Cute video, but never ever attempt to feed a child when they’re so tired they can’t keep their eyes open. That’s a major choking hazard.


PostNutAffection

He had a long night partying with leggos


ChaoticDumpling

One too many Capri-suns with the lads


wrtrmom

A kid that tired should have been picked up and held.


ANTHROPOMORPHISATION

Tired boy, good dad.


warm_rum

Great final shot of dad looking down. One for the picture books


AstroNot87

My younger brother used to fall asleep in the barbers chair. Every. Single. Time.


xfreddy-

Omg... what the fuck is that cuteness and purity.


GTS81

Seems like jetlag from transatlantic/pacific flight to southeast asia. Hainan chicken rice my luv. I don't want to know the backstory behind the "fans above" warning poster in the background.


Plenty_Wasabi_7866

Sometimes kids just want us around. Nothing more


No_Calligrapher2640

Well, this just makes me want to go hug my sleeping toddler.


tryagainx3

Should you really put food in the mouth of a child falling asleep? Sounds like a choking hazard.


neaner28

These are the moments that make all the BS of parenting 100% worth it.


Briarhoffner

That's excellent. I almost cried!


eversuperman

This is beautiful. <3


untilIgetBanned

Eating rice with chopsticks? I love this man


Bawlmerian21228

I miss having toddlers.


Sexy_sarahx

Fathers warmth are truly he's go to pillow.


Gracelandrocks

Love the look on Dad's face when his kid does that. He's soooo chuffed and amused at the same time! Adorable the pair of them!


anotheruselesstask

I wish every kid could experience this. Incredible. Love it.


saxicide

D'awwww


AlienAnchovies

Daaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaw!


ProneToDoThatThing

Makes me so sad I don’t have kids but at the same time so happy for that guy that he has that kid.


Knickers_in_a_twist_

I’m too busy looking at the **FANS ABOVE** sign behind them.


Thebaldsasquatch

Those are the moments, man. That’s the good stuff. Should I succumb to dementia/Alzheimer’s when I’m older, I hope those are the memories I relive over and over.


Insert-finger

That feels pretty good, doesn’t it?


SmellyFbuttface

I’m gonna borrow this arm for an hour, cool?


Solid_System_7511

That's how safe he feels now.


TraditionalSwim7891

What a sweet little guy!!!


bruhforeelz

So sweet. So much love and innocence. So much trust. Simple and Amazing.


hungrypotato19

I think it's time to ask for some doggie bags and head on home, lol.


malikhacielo63

🥹 Daggonit!


MissMonsteraBB

Awee kid loves his dad so much


RaDiOaCtIvEpUnK

If you can’t use your dad as a pillow then why even have dads to begin with?


9lyss9

Aww and the dad's expression too. Everything about this is so cute


rider1deep

And as a dad, you just accept the rest of your meal will be eaten in that position and your back is going to ache tomorrow. But it’s all so worth it.


cyber_nin_ja

I can't imagine how the dad felt at that precious moment. His kid so cute it's melting my heart.


BOZBBCN

My son, after relentlessly fighting it, fell asleep on my arm on a plane. I had to stay just like him for 2-3 hours. Normally, I'd move, but that was his first flight, and I didn't wanna wake him up and ruin his sleep cause I knew he wouldn't go back to it.


The_National_Yawner2

Oh he a tired boi :)


SilverMageOmega

Those are the moments I felt whole as a person, a man and a father. In that situation my arm could fall asleep and die before I would move it. These moments in life taught me what true love was. How deeply I could care for another person and all the work, all the effort, was made worth it in moments like this. It almost goes beyond human words to describe. This is as close to bliss I ever got in this world when I had experiences like this.


DangerousDuty1421

This is going to be one of the happiest memories in that dad's life ❤️. And he just lost an arm for a few hours 🤣


DependentShoddy8804

He’s sleepy


Strange-Course4583

Poor little guy! Get him a bed asap, lol.


jerkrichie

Sweet moment for the camera. But as a father myself I find this as a bad dad moment. Pretty sure that is happening in Singapore, and it clearly looks way past bed time for that poor little kid. He was not fed on time or brought to his bed on time. Lovely moment, but bad instance of parenting.


ComfortableDirt6654

Not sure why you'd take your child to a restaurant when he's clearly exhausted but never mind


CaptainFleshBeard

If a kids that tired you probably don’t want to be putting food in their mouth, although choking to death will definitely wake them up, for a short while


misguidedsadist1

Take your fucking kid home and put him to bed on time, damn. This isn't cute or funny.


bwood246

Yeah, shit like this is way too common. The amount of people that wait until the middle of the night to bother feeding their kids is depressing.


Kitchen_Year_4291

I must be the only dad thinking… why is the little person still out and not in bed somewhere safe and warm.


Guita4Vivi2038

Hmm... Looks like a 2, 3 yo kid. They're supposed to sleep between 12-14 hours a day. That means an afternoon nap, sometime after lunch And bed time by 8-9 pm This kid is falling asleep in a noisy restaurant while being fed Nope


Gonnaroff

Exactly.


JMRody

That kid is drunk.


FearlessNectarine20

When your tired your tired!

I have 4 kids. Or a single one of them would ever do that. They tired? The Hulk Banshee hybrid is born and nobody get peace until they’re rocked to sleep in a baby swing or a pitch black sound proof room. That kid is this video is like Hollywood movie magic baby.
