“Mom Just Sent It to Me”: Deion Sanders Jr. Gets Sentimental Childhood Memory From Coach Prime’s Ex-Wife on Her Birthday, Deiondra and Father Express Affection

Amid the chaos of the transfer portal and the upcoming “Black and Gold” weekend, Coach Prime’s family found time for a heartfelt trip down memory lane. Deion Sanders Jr. recently honored his mom, former model Carolyn Chambers, on her birthday. Interestingly, Carolyn shares her birthday with her daughter, Deiondra Sanders, making the occasion extra special. Thus Sanders Jr. has a reason for a double celebration. 

After Deiondra’s sweet birthday message to the “best mommy in the world”, her brother is now sharing his love for the 53-turning Carolyn. He shared his old memories that his mother brought forth indicating his shared love for the ladies of his house, alongside his father.

This touching tribute commemorated both Deiondra Sanders’ and Carolyn Chambers’ birthdays. He captioned it, “Made this when I was like 4-6 years old… my mom just sent it to me.”

The scrapbook featured photos of a young Sanders Jr., Deiondra, and the iconic 90s “Neon Deion” with his first wife, Carolyn Chambers. The touching dedication– “to my mom, dad, and my sister because I love them all very much” –  shows the young Deion’s loving heart.

The scrapbook included some photos of a young Deion Sanders Jr. with the words “It is just me.” True to the Sanders family spirit, it also had a Bible verse and a picture of their pastor with the caption “My big sister and I are being Christened.”

This unexpected and heartwarming post touched everyone, including his dad and sister. Deion Sanders commented, “Wow! Amen Amen & Amen,” while Deiondra added, “Awwww ong lol this is so bomb.” This emotional post from Sanders Jr. followed his sister’s birthday message to their mom in just a few hours.

More recently, she has become a backbone of support for her pregnant daughter, Deiondra. Carolyn accompanied Deiondra to a recent baby anatomy scan, proudly sharing the special moment online. 

Meanwhile, Deiondra also expressed her deep love and affection for her mom. “God had given you the best gift this year, your grandbaby you have been wanting,” she wrote in a touching post celebrating her mom’s presence.
