My Three Sons

Look at them…just look at these three, amazing sons of mine.

 My oldest, Antonio, becoming such a young man. These major changes are really starting to take place in his physical appearance…you know, when a boy starts to look like a man, kind of “around the edges” of his face, neck…eyes?  He is such a handsome reflection of the baby boy he just was (seems like yesterday).

My youngest, Adarius, such a ham roll, his ear lobes are even fat! He is just about the jolliest, truly happy, spirit I have ever met. I am SO glad he has finally joined the family and I am SO complete now that he is here. Waking up every morning with him next to me is like opening a brand new gift everyday.

Then…there is my middle son. Hmmm, what can I say about this little guy? Those of you who know him really need no explanation, you already know that there are really no words to accurately describe my “one-of-a-kind” D’Angelo. I will preface this by saying that I love my little man with all my heart and soul, couldn’t survive my life without him, and I know he is most certainly a gift from Almighty God Himself. With that, I also know that God must have a unique sense of humor and He is most definitely sitting up on His throne getting a big kick out of the way D’Lo runs the program here in the Sparrow household. He is the most active, scrappy, bossy, headstrong, opinionated, curious, “hands on” and, of course, perfect two year old.

If it’s true that pictures say a thousand words, well then, these photos say all that’s needed about my three sons…
