If you're looking for something to tug on your heartstrings today, we've got you covered. Nearly 100 readers submitted entries for our Father's Day-themed photo package. And while the pictures alone can elicit plenty of ooohs and aaahs, the stories behind them are just as sweet — from the first-time dad who will be spending the day in the hospital with his premature son, to the father-daughter pair who have been riding roller coasters at Valleyfair for almost 40 years. But one thing's for certain: You're never too old to be daddy's little girl (or boy). Feel the love — and see more photos — in our special Father's Day gallery.
