Like father, like son: Father's Day inspires faterh-son police officers to recreate photo from 20 years ago
(quote)
One father-son duo took a trip down memory lane in light of Father’s Day this year. Officer Andy Gould with the Auburn Police Department and his son, Michael, recreated a 20-year-old photo.
In 1998, the pair smiled for a photo, which shows Michael sitting on his father's lap inside of a patrol car. "When I get bigger I’m going to be my Dad’s partner and catch bad guys and burglars," the caption on the original photo reads.
On Sunday, the two re-created the moment -- though as the police department noted on Facebook, it was a “hard squeeze” with his son’s 6’7” frame.
Michael is a sheriff’s deputy with the King County Sheriff’s Office, according to Fox25.

"I wish my mom's phone wasn't invented", writes 2nd grader in school project
(quote)
A Louisiana second-grader's homework assignment is going viral and making parents across the nation question if they spend too much time on their cell phones.
Teacher Jen Adams Beason wrote in a since-deleted Facebook post that she assigned her students to write about an invention they wish had never been created.
She posted an essay in which one of her students picked the cell phone.
"I don't like the phone because my [parents] are on their phone every day ... I hate my mom's phone and I wish she never had one," the student wrote.
Texas boy, 10, pens hilarious thank you note to Fulshear officer who pulled mom over: 'She deserved it'
Police officers in Texas were so tickled by a 10-year-old boy's handwritten thank you letter that they decided to share it on social media.
"We received the letter last Friday from a young man who attends Huggins Elementary School in Fulshear," Captain Mike McCoy with the Fulshear Police Department told Fox News. "During National Police Week, students from this school write us many letters of support. This one, obviously, stood out."
The boy's letter to a "Fulshear Police Officer" expressed gratitude for his mother getting stopped.
"Thank you for pulling my mom over because she deserved it because she took my phone away and I did not like it and how she always brags about how good of a driver she is," the student said. "And it just annoys me."

Mystery. Bond between lion and toddler. Lion comes across, licks&paws at glass; toddler, hands on glass, looks at lion unafraid
"lion lick and paw at glass after becoming 'obsessed' with SC toddler"

Lion takes a shine to Rock Hill baby behind glass: "Ever see a lion so obsessed?"
Michael, the male lion, took an immediate shine to Josie. The zoo is a preservation site for endangered animals.
"The lion came right across the enclosure and pawed at the glass, and even licked the glass, with Josie right there just inches from him," Cait said. "The inches were the safety glass, though."
"The video shows the lion only wants to paw at Josie, and Josie is right there looking at the lion with her hands on the glass," Cait said. "She wasn’t scared. She loved it."
