"I'm just staring at the baby saying please don't throw up, please don't pee on yourself, please don't take a number two", says Wayne Hayer Jr. The 26 year old kinesiology major at Morehouse College is also a husband and the father of 5-month old Assata June. A photo of a moment when Hayer had to bring his daughter to class, has gone viral over the past few days.
The photo, by Nick Vaughn, shows baby Assata in a onesie, pink sweater, and a hat, strapped to the chest of Hayer's mathematics professor Nathan Alexander. The visiting professor says "I'd told him if he ever needed to bring her he could."
