Prayer Request for A Tiny Baby (Update in post #12850)

Myself | 8-11-03 | Brad's Gramma

[Brad’s Gramma]

If you will, please remember this tiny baby in your prayers. He’s the grandson of a very dear friend of mine. Logan was born on July 25. His due date was in October, making his mommy 26 weeks along, being born 3 months and 3 days early.

Logan was 1 lb 9.4 oz when he was born and is now weighing, as of this morning, 1 lb. 8.3 oz. The little guy is now 12-1/2” long.

He’s a real trooper and is fighting with all his little body can fight with. His Grandma said that he’s starting to recognize his mommy when she comes in the room and hears her voice. She said he tries so hard to open his eyes, and starts kicking his feet.

I asked my friend if there were any specific prayers, other than the obvious…and this is her reply…” A prayer of thanks for the miracle called "Logan.”

On a personal note, I’ve read the emails daily from my friend. I’ve known her for years, I’ve heard her talking about her family for years…but I’ve got to tell you that I’m SO impressed with how her children have all banded together in support. What an incredibly wonderful and loving family.

Father God, we lift up Logan’s little body to you. We pray that you can strengthen him hourly, daily, weekly, until he’s grown enough to go home with his precious family. We ask for guidance for the doctors and nurses who are caring for him. We ask for strength for his parents and extended family. Thank you so much for the gift of life. In Jesus’ Name, Amen

Fellow Freepers…….I bring you Logan!!!

"ANCHOR'S AWEIGH!

(that's Cowboy's FAVORITE SONG...he told me)"

Certainly not trying to start an interservice rivalry here, but it's pretty self explanatory that the swab jockeys have to sing about an anchor and the dog faces have to sing about an ammunition box rolling along.

I mean, the poor guys just don't have much of a life!

Tell the little cowboy hello for us. I expect he'll be on a horse soon :-}

Well 3 will get you 10 that only 1 in 10 Marines under three years TIS can tell me where the halls of Tripoli are...... now about that lunch you owe me.

[HoustonCurmudgeon]

.... and just so you don't ask yes I KNOW what I wrote ........;-)

[TexasCowboy]

Heck, I didn't even know they HAD any halls in Tripoli!

(Or in Montezuma, for that matter!)

Okay!
I'm off the rest of the week.
Name your poison and the place and time.

[TexasCowboy]

"I expect he'll be on a horse soon :-}"

I'm working on that, tiki!

Gotta get a place to keep his horse first!

[LucyJo]

Thanks, amom. It's true, isn't it?

BTW, I love your screen name. The first time I saw it I thought, "I'll bet she's a really great mom because she chose that name."

[LucyJo]

LOL! That cold wipey threat might work until BG and Nana come up with a bribe that's better.

Good luck, TC. (grin)

[amom]

It's true, isn't it?

Oh yes, very very true.

I chose my 'handle' cause it's what I love to do best. :-)

[amom]

Termite is a typical Texan...he also likes those tender little kisses

It's so good to 'hear'. I figured he was in good hands.

[stanz]

Yes, what a burden he has to endure!

[TexasCowboy]

OKAY, I KNOW IT'S BEEN A LONG, DRY SPELL WITHOUT AN UPDATE!

UPDATE:

The Termite is doing just great!
He's running around the country doing his thing.
He went to the zoo and to the coast and to a rifle shoot!
He's growing so fast it's hard to keep up with him!

He had his 8 month birthday on the 25th of this month, and all systems are go!

[Canticle_of_Deborah]

LOL! The fish ate the poor boy's head!

[wardaddy]

He is a real cutie. Prayers sent.

BTTT!!!!!!

[68-69TonkinGulfYachtClub]

WOO HOO!
You sure are growing Texas Termite!
I'm glad to hear that life is treating you good.
Thank You God for taking care of "our little one."
Remember God Loves you and so do we.

"you're clearly raisin' him right!! :-)"

I wish I could take credit for that!
This is his mommy's and Nana's doing!

[TexasCowboy]

The Termite is like a little varmint!

He loves those little holes he can crawl into!

[TexasCowboy]

I kissed him for you, Uncle Tonk!
