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!!!
You BET! The Kevlar Doggie, Strikes AGAIN! :)
Thank You God!
Happy Birthday Logan - Big Hugs from Houston
Wow. Amen amen amen! Miracle is the only word that comes to mind. Thanks so much for the ping. What an absolutely adorable child Logan has become.
What is wrong with my monitor?? It's all blurry! Oh my gosh, I just LOVE that boy. I can't see his pictures w/o crying and laughing at the same time. Look at his expressions. He is a little dreamboat. Love the "reading" picture where his face seems to say "Who are we kidding here?" And who is shrinking that dog? ROFL!!
Thank you, BG, and amen. He's beautiful!
One of Nana's favorite ones, too. :)

Grammie, is that the dog from the crib in the neo-natal unit? The huge dog that was bigger than Logan?
How can that be? Oh Dear Lord, what a Miracle You've given us...!
Yes, HiJinx. That is The Doggie. The one that was bigger than Logan.
I join you in absolute AWE over what God's done for this family...
Happy Birthday, Logan!!!
It doesn't seem long ago at all that we were praying for a tiny fighter with tubes in his little nose.
What a miracle our Logan is!
