“Seventh grade won’t know what hit em!#firstdayofschool,” Burton captioned the shot, where her son had his hands together as though he was clapping as he laughed.
“Our son starts 7th grade tomorrow. And here he is, watching @elvismovie for the 12th time (no joke!), tears in his eyes,” she wrote.
“We’ve cried pretty much every viewing. I’m gonna need everyone to tell @bazluhrmann how much I love him for making this movie,” she wrote. “Gus went through a massive Elvis phase when he was 6. We listened to @sxmelvisradio every day. Obviously, his hair and wardrobe were influenced.”
Burton went on to share that Gus once “was brave enough to get up in front of the school with his raspy little voice and sing #foolsrushin. It was little kid fandom.”
