Prayer Request for A Tiny Baby (Update in post #12850)
Myself | 8-11-03 | Brad's Gramma

Posted on 08/11/2003 12:57:30 PM PDT by 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!!!

Wow, just wow.

Once again I have chill bumps and am humbled by the power of our Lord.

The b-day pics yesterday were great too.

Always awed. Always grateful. Always amazed.

And I know I say this everytime I post to you on this thread, but thanks again for the reminder of all the blessings in my life, and to not sweat this small things, and turn over the large things.

(((((hugs to Logan)))))

A lesson I could learn myself....you'd think I'd know better, wouldn't you, after watching this child grow...

What a handsome devil? Boy, he sure has come a long way. This year, I remembered to send his birthday card, but for the life of me, can't think of what a debonair gentleman like our Logan would like for his 3rd birthday.
Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Auntie Stanz

I can't believe that he is already 3! It is so wonderful to see him growing and learning and it is obvious from looking at the pictures that he is bursting with personality. God is gracious and I don't take any credit besides talking to God a few times. I do feel that my life has been enriched by knowing Logan, even if only in pictures on the internet. The pictures also bring bittersweet memories of Cowboy, he so obviously loved Logan dearly.

It's now the Incredible Shrinking Dog, thanks to God.
