Viola Davis has found a No. 1 fan in her sweet 4-year-old daughter.

When it came time for little Genisis Tennon to select a Halloween costume, she chose to dress up like her Emmy-winning mother -- and luckily for all of us, the actress shared a photo on Facebook.

Didn't work for her. The Pirate? A no go. So she finally said," I just want to be YOU mommy"! So... uhh.....this is ME.Posted by Viola Davis on Saturday, October 31, 2015

In September, Davis made history when she became the first black actress to win the award for Best Lead Actress in a Drama category for her starring role on ABC's How to Get Away with Murder.

Shortly after Davis' win, Genesis took over her mother's Instagram account to share an endearing congratulatory video message.
