AUBURN, Wash. (WSVN) — A son who dreamed of following in his father’s footsteps of working in law enforcement recreated a picture taken 20 years ago of him sitting on his dad’s lap in his patrol car.

Auburn, Washington police officer Andy Gould’s 6-foot-7-inch tall son squeezed onto his lap on Father’s Day to recreate an image dear to his heart.

In 1998, Gould’s son had written, “When I get bigger, I’m going to be my dad’s partner and catch bad guys and burglars.” That came true when he became a part of the King County Sheriff’s deputy.

The father-son duo can be seen in their uniforms with huge smiles as they both try to sit in the driver’s seat of the patrol car.
