The wait for your Santa photo can be long and boring and it all proved too much for one young bub who fell asleep in the line, according to Mirror.
When it was the sleeping child’s turn, Santa suggested the parents leave him sleeping and this photo of Santa snoozing with the boy was the adorable result.
Santa is suitably reclined with a book open next to him, while the boy sprawled across him in slumber painting the perfect Christmas picture.
The image has gone viral with over 800,000 views since being posted on Imgur, attracting comments such as “This is just freakingly cute.”
