The Oval Office is the U.S. President’s official work space and anyone lucky enough to set foot in there is expected to be on their best behavior. Unfortunately for one couple, their son seemed to get a little bored in the room.

A photo is now making the rounds online, depicting the little boy face planting a couch in the oval office. Obama’s back was to the child.

The parents were facing the president and all their attention was focused on him. The boy certainly looked like a gentleman in his outfit, however his face was buried in the couch cushion and his feet were in the air.

That made it pretty clear he was dealing with a bout of boredom while his mom and dad chatted with Obama.

The White House posted the comical picture on its official flickr account with an explanatory caption that reads “President Barack Obama visits with a departing United States Secret Service agent and his wife as their son dives into a couch in the Oval Office.”

Photographer Lawrence Jackson is responsible for capturing the gem.
