In a now-viral video, a mom asked her son if he knew her real name — and he didn’t have a clue. Check out the rest of this hilarious story below!

This adorable little boy had trouble figuring out his mom’s real name.
“What was my name when I was little?” Heidi asked her son, who quickly responded: “Heidi.” She then asked him what her name was now, and he had no idea. “I don’t know — Mom?” he guessed. “I don’t know what your name is!”
Heidi asked both questions again, and, for the latter, he hilariously guessed “Mom” again. The adorable kid reiterated that he didn’t know his mom’s real name, and honestly? We can’t wait until he realizes he does, in fact, know it.
