Matthew McConaughey Shares Sweet Message and Photo for Son's 11th Birthday, "Mini-McConaughey" Fans Gush

Hollywood star Matthew McConaughey shared a photo of his son and a sweet message dedicated to him for his 11th birthday. Fans who saw the picture marveled at the resemblance between the dad and son and referred to the 11-year-old boy as a "mini McConaughey."

Yesterday, acting legend Matthew McConaughey, 54, took to his Instagram to post an endearing picture of him and his son to celebrate the child's 11th birthday. Along with the photograph, the doting dad shared a heartfelt message.

In the image, the actor is seen lovingly looking at his second-born son, whom he shares with his wife Camila Alves McConaughey, as the two are positioned on a couch. As the little boy looked at something in the distance, his dad wrapped his right arm around his back.

The "Interstellar" star's caption thanked his son for bringing him and their family joy, citing the young boy's ability to put smiles on his family members' faces. Another part of his caption read, "Double one's, we love watching you grow."

When social media users saw Matthew's beautiful dedication to Livingston Alves McConaughey, they were amazed by how "evident" the similarity between the boy and his dad is. One fan dubbed Livingston Matthew's "twin," and another called him "mini McConaughey." Someone else stated, "The boy look[s] just like [his] dad."

Livingston's big brother, Levi Alves McConaughey, also wished the youngster a happy birthday and shared an array of adorable pictures of the two of them on his social media account.

The 11-year-old and his siblings (Levi and Livingston are also brothers to their sister, Vida Alves McConaughey) have taught their loving patriarch, Matthew, a lot about being a dad, even at their young ages.

The "True Detective" talent once stated that his eldest teaches him to be considerate, his daughter teaches him how to forgive, and while speaking about Livingston, he expressed that he "reminds me of the power of absolute singular focus. When he's got a project...he zeroes in and the rest of the world is gone."

Matthew's kids also gave him a lot to think about when he was putting together his children's book "Just Because," which he says includes topics that he has talked to them about and things he has heard from them when they are speaking to their friends.
