These grandparents are almost certainly more adorable than yours

Almost too cute.

Every now and then, something pops up on the internet that's just... really nice.

Rio Smith's grandparents fall into this category. Last week, Smith shared a four second video taken out of the bus window on her way to work.

Did you spot the tiny, waving figure in the back garden?

Well, Smith's accompanying tweet made the whole thing infinitely more adorable.

Roughly 45,000 retweets later, and the video seemed to have captured the internet's heart.

We're not sobbing, you are.
