'Thank You For Always Being There': Mother's Day Photos

PLEASANTON, CA — Whether it's through their personality, looks, hobbies or a combination of everything, daughters become a reflection of the woman who raised them. With Mother's Day 2018 right around the corner, we are celebrating that special bond by inviting Patch readers across California to share their "mother-daughter lookalike" photos. This is another one of our Pleasanton readers!

Elsie Wolfe sent this beautiful photo of her with her mom Elsa Walker.

“Happy Mother’s Day to my mom! Thank you for always being there for me and for all that you still do! I love you!” -Elsie

Happy Mother's Day, Elsa!
