'Lucky To Be His Mom': Mother's Day Tribute From Scripps Ranch

SCRIPPS RANCH, CA – Patch reader Michelle Fitzpatrick of Scripps Ranch shared a photograph taken with her beloved boy.

"My wonderful son, Gabe, is my only child and I’m so lucky to be his mom," she wrote. "He has such a kind heart and great sense of humor. I cherish my time with him. It’s going way too fast."

Whether it's through their personality, looks, hobbies or a combination of everything, children become a reflection of the woman who raised them. With Mother's Day 2019 right around the corner, we are celebrating that special bond by inviting Patch readers across California to share their "mother-daughter" and "mother-son" look-alike photos. It doesn't matter how old the kids are, they'll always be your babies!

Please send your photo of mom and kids to autumn.johnson@patch.com to be included in our feature.
