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!!!
Checking in from beautiful sunny CA. Eaker & I spent 5.5 wonderful hours with TC, Faith and Joel yesterday.
One of us will give a full report when we get back home.
I would like to ask every one to definitely add Joel to your prayers. He has his hands full and is still a cheerful, wonderful man.
Thank you for the update - how wonderful that you got to spend so much time together - send him our love please.
Thank you so much for this news, TheMom.
Prayers without ceasing have been going forth for TC and Faith and Joel.
Reminding them of this beautiful song of the 1950's,
I add the fact it was my Senior High School Class Song..:)
You´ll Never Walk Alone
When you walk through a storm
Hold your head up high
And don't be afraid of the dark.
At the end of the storm
There's a golden sky
And the sweet silver
Song of a lark.
Walk on through the wind
Walk on through the rain
Though your dreams
Be tossed and blown.
Walk on
Walk on
With hope in your hearts
And you'll never walk alone
You'll never walk alone.
Walk on
Walk on
. . . . . . . .

Lamentations 3: 22-23 The steadfast love of the Lord never ceases, His mercies never come to an end. They are new every morning; Great is Thy faithfulness.
How wonderfully true that is, Sandrat!
We are so blessed as His Children to be able to keep taking forward steps without fear, knowing each one is toward Him, and His promises!
Continued prayer bttt for TC, Faith and Joel and all concerned with TCs well being in whatever fashion. Hugs to you and Eaker, yer' the BEST!

The link is the picture, unless I download it and upload it somewhere else. But here's the larger version, which might work.

Sometimes you need earplugs. She's got a great set of lungs, and isn't shy about using them.
Oh...I'll BETCHA! LOL!! She is one PRECIOUS baby!!!
And you, Gramps, have FRmail! ;)
Well heck! I can't see a thing! But I did go to the "secret garden" and noticed that somebody had a birthday on Nov. 2nd!! Did I miss that too????????

Brad's Gramma is going to try to post some of the pictures here, but hasn't yet done so. Check back later.
Yes, someone did have a birthday, and his Mom had one the next day. :) He was in San Diego for both birthdays and couldn't call her at a decent hour. Then Friday he couldn't get a hold of her, she was staying at his brother's because the brother was in Las Vegas celebrating his anniversary (a bit late) and she was staying with her two younger (16+ and 14) grandkids, so didn't get to wish her a happy birthday until Saturday, 3 days late.
But she is coming to Central Texas next Thursday, for Miss V's Christening and Thanksgiving. It will only be her 4th or 5th time to fly in her 78 years. Direct flight from Omaha to DFW. Her daughter in law will pick her up at the airport and bring her to Killeen.
Finally I get to see her!
Well worth the wait!
What a cutie!
