Being a parent is a job that takes patience, love, understanding, and care, among other things. It's a job that requires you to put on many different hats — or in this case, goggles and overalls.

Originally posted to Reddit [1], this photo of a dad and his son dressed up as minions [2] is making its sweep across the Internet. One would guess that a very excited little boy wanted to go see the Minions movie, and his dad not only obliged, but went above and beyond the call of duty, donning a yellow tee, overalls, and Minion goggles before heading onto the subway to the movie theater.

We're sure the boy had an amazing time with his dad, although a few commenters had slightly different theories about what was going on in this photo, which made us giggle.

However it is they ended up on that subway in those costumes, we think it's awesome. Nice job, Dad.
