Grants Pass (Oregon) - Little boy, big feelings: this two-year-old from Grants Pass, Oregon, has been melting hearts on TikTok for a few days now. One reason for this is his sugar-sweet tuxedo, in which he shyly walks into a room. On the other hand, there's the occasion he's about to attend.

Oh dear, you can see his insecurity in the video. He approaches a hospital bed with a bouquet of pink flowers. His mother is lying in it, and next to her is the real reason for the visit: his little sister.

The little boy is allowed to see her for the first time at this moment, which is why his father has dressed him up so smartly. He has to lift his boy up straight away so that he can take a look at the baby .

Less than a week after the video went online, it had already racked up 8.5 million clicks and 1.4 million likes. The comments section is also full to bursting, often with little hearts or similarly emotional emojis.

But why did the little boy have to wear a tuxedo while his father trotted along behind him in a hoodie and jogging bottoms?

"I wanted my son to make a good first impression on his little sister. So I figured I'd dress him in a tuxedo when he met her," Brooks Hunsaker, 29, said in an interview with Newsweek this week.

But the father of two wasn't quite that serious. He was also interested in injecting a little humor into the emotional moment.

"My wife likes to dress my son really smart (...) and sometimes I tease her about it. So I thought it would be a funny idea to bring him to the hospital in a tuxedo," says the US-American .

Whether funny or heartwarming, either way the 29-year-old has created a special moment that will reach an audience of millions.
