'Our Children Are So Lucky': Falls Church Father's Day Photos

FALLS CHURCH, VA—Whether it's through their personality, looks, hobbies or a combination of everything, sons become a reflection of the man who raised them. With Father's Day 2018 right around the corner, we are celebrating that special bond by inviting Patch readers across Virginia to share their "father-son look-alike" photos. Even if you don't look that much alike!

Or for that matter, any father-child photo is just as special. Falls Church resident Kelly Ferguson sent us a father-daughter photo that's undoubtedly a special one. The picture shows her husband Matt with their 7-month-old daughter Delia at Dogfish Head Alehouse last month. "Our children are so lucky to have you as a father. Happy Father's Day!" writes Kelly.

Happy Father's Day, Matt!

It's your turn, Patch readers — what traits do son and father share? Submit your lookalike photos by sending them to emily.leayman@patch.com. Be sure to include a nice message for your loved one, as well as the city/location of the photo and the date it was taken. We'll share some of our favorites.
