My Three Sons

Book excerpt: John Sonego and his partner, Michael, had always wanted to start a family. Little did they know they would become the fathers of not one, not two, but three precious boys. My Three Sons shares the heartwarming true story of this incredible family. Born to a drug-addicted mother and taken from her after a string of arrests, the three biological brothers come to their new home to begin a new life. With John and Michaels unconditional love and acceptance, the five became an instant family, learning to lean on each other for the support and devotion only a family can give. Poignant and funny, heartbreaking and inspiring, My Three Sons recounts one familys life and reaffirms the transformative power of love in childrens lives. This is the story of five very lucky people, three brothers and the two men who raise them. The story of how this family came to be is inspirational but its more than that. It reminds us of one simple and powerful truth that in raising children, it is often difficult to determine who is the teacher and who is the student. Johns journey is proof that in parenting you get as much as you give. Joan Garry, former executive director of GLAAD, activist, and parent
