First-grade boy insists on keeping his mask on for school picture. ‘I always listen to my mom’

'I'm so proud of him for sticking to his word but I should have been more clear about my rules on this day,' said the boy's mom.

A Nevada first-grader is being praised for not taking off his mask for a school photo – all because his mom told him to keep it on.

Nicole Peoples opened up about sweet moment on her Facebook page, writing beside the masked photo of her son Mason, “I’m so proud of him for sticking to his word but I should have been more clear about my rules on this day.”

Detailing the hilarious incident, Nicole explained that the exchange started with the photographer telling Mason to remove his mask for the photo.

In response, Mason told the photographer, “My mom said to keep it on all the time unless I’m eating and far away from everybody.”

Nicole said the photographer attempted to reassure Mason, telling him, “I’m sure it’s ok to take it off for your pictures.” But Mason refused and replied, “No, my mom seriously told me to make sure to keep it on.”
