Mom & Daughter Power In Costa Mesa PHOTO

NEWPORT BEACH, CA — Whether it's through their personality, looks, hobbies or a combination of everything, daughters become a reflection of the woman who raised them. On Mother's Day 2018, we are celebrating that special bond by sharing Patch reader "mother-daughter lookalike" photos.

It doesn't matter how old the kids are, they'll always be your babies! and part of the fun of motherhood is watching your children grow up and enjoy the same things that you love. For this Orange County mom, she is sharing her love of running.

In Costa Mesa mother Anne Sandoval (l.) and her daughter Rae (r.) recently took part in the Inflatables Run. The pair was caught on camera, here.

When asked by Patch, Anne wrote about their special time together.

"It was our first mom and daughter attempt at a 5k at the inflatable run in Costa Mesa, CA - April 2018. Momma(Anne) and Rae did a total of 5 miles instead!

That is awesome! we hope you have a happy Mother's Day, Anne!
