As adorable as kids can be, they can also be pretty chaotic. One of my younger relatives delights in knocking stuff over and making messes, but always seems to regret it when he’s scolded for it. The poor little guy just can’t help himself.
So while parents often seem captivated by their little ones, there’s also a lot of exhaustion in the little shrugs they give us when the kids start acting rambunctious.
That common understanding may very well be why one little boy is getting so much love among social media users for being quietly polite all the time. As we’ll soon see, there’s something unbearably cute about how he does it.
This stylish little fellow is two-year-old Grey and he’s become quite the sensation on TikTok lately.
According to Good Morning America , he’s a big fan of firetrucks and olives and also really likes hanging out with the wild goose that roams his neighborhood.
Honestly, the fact that he can convince geese not to attack him already makes him pretty special.

But after his mom – Linda Meeker of Washington – started posting clips of him on TikTok, there was one particular thing about him that made quite the impression of users.
Specifically, it was the way he says “thank you, mama” without fail every time Meeker gives him something to eat.
Although Grey’s politeness is certainly encouraged by his parents, they’re also likely who he learned it from.
As Meeker told Good Morning America, her and Grey’s father often thank each other for little gestures like this so she figures Grey observed this and starting adopting it himself.
Although the descriptions of the TikTok clips he stars in often say he didn’t eat that much of what he was offered, he still seems to appreciate it.
As Meeker said , “I definitely taught him. I think it’s very important to be consistent and repetitive. It’s the norm for him.”
Meeker uploaded a compilation of times Grey said “thank you mama” and his most popular video yet.
At the time of this writing, Grey’s politeness has attracted at least 14.6 million views and now you can enjoy it as well.
