They grow up so fast. Sigh.
It wasn't so long ago that I remember Da'Very as a young teen, saving up his checks for music recording and mixing software. He even organized his closet and made it into a recording booth. He had high hopes of becoming a rapper. And he is quite the lyricist. And not because he is my brother. However, that teen has now become a man is a husband and father to two adorable children!

After enduring a couple of job layoffs and a few setbacks, Da'Very sought out many options to help get him and his family back on a forward trajectory. He then spoke to two of our step-brothers who are members of the Army and Air Force. They gave him all the pros and cons of joining the military, what to expect and how it would affect him and his family. Da'Very has always been one to put others needs before his own and this decision to join the Army is an example of that.
He is leaving today for boot camp and will be stationed in Lawton, Oklahoma. Luckily we have family there that he can get reacquainted with.
Here are some family pictures that were taken before Da'Very's leave.
