If you thought Grey’s Anatomy’s Jesse Williams (Jackson Avery) was adorable, just check out what what he looked like as a kid.
In the spirit of Throwback Thursday yesterday, March 27 — which is unquestionably our favorite fake holiday — Jesse posted a pic of himself as a little kid, sailing the seven seas in a life jacket and cargo shorts. Even back then, Jesse was totally stylin’.
“Me & Uncle Pete on the coast,” Jesse said alongside his Instagram post. “#TrueStory. #FamilyFormsAndShapes.”
Jesse was absolutely precious as a child… not like that comes as any surprise. Also, we are impressed that he knew how to sail before he could drive a car. If the steering on a boat was left up to us, we’d end up lost at sea forever. Good job, Jesse!
You know what this means: It’s time for Shonda Rhimes to capitalize off of Jesse’s sailing experience. We’ve seen every type of disastrous vehicle accident in the book: Plane crashes, car crashes, ferry crashes, school bus crashes… it’s about time we witness something horrific on a boat. Just as long as Jackson survives it, of course.
Even better: A flash forward where we get to see Jackson and April (Sarah Drew) teaching their kids how to sail. How perfect would that be?
