An adorable six-year-old boy has met President Obama in the White House after a letter he wrote offering to help and befriend a young Syrian refugee boy went viral. 

Alex Myteberi, dressed in a dapper new suit, was wide-eyed as he shook hands with Obama for the first time in the Oval Office last week. 

The young boy wrote a letter to Obama in August asking the President if a five-year-old Syrian boy affected by the civil war could come and live with his family in Edgemont, New York. 

'I liked what you wrote so much that I ended up reading it to everybody. You being so nice, and kind, hopefully makes other people think the same way. So I was very proud of you,' Obama told the excited six-year-old boy. 

This was the picture that made little Alex Myteberi write to the President offering his home to the boy and to be his new brother. 

I don't know about all of you but I needed a story like this to end my day.

Some days just drain you, and this was one of them.

And then when I think of what happens in January......well let's just say I need as many of these reminders of how wonderful our President is that I can get until then.
