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!!!

Pre-K, Kudos and a ‘God Bless’ to Logan; who clearly carries a special light and a special love. His is such an inspirational story and amazing unfolding.

Congratulations to Logan...I’m not a bit surprised that he is a class leader. Great pictures. : )

Although this thread was started long before I joined I’ve truly enjoyed seeing the updates.

What a great little guy he is! You can see that he is going to grow up to be a fine young man....especially with all the love that surrounds him.

Thanks for sharing, Brad’s Gramma.

Be still my heart. Wow...what an uplifting story and photos. He certainly does look gorgeous in that color. He looks so proud of himself and rightly so. God bless him and continue to guide Logan in all the right directions. He is a blessing over and over and over again. Thank you Brad’s Gramma for all you do in keeping us all updated with Logan’s growth and development. his parents must be so happy and proud of him. What a long way this child has come and hope he has a long way to go in a good way that is. Thank you so much. :)

Where have you been????? I can only imagine how big your boys are now! These kids grow like weeds don’t they? LOL
We’re so thrilled that Logan is now “average” height around most of the boys his age, but he’s built like his Uncle G was and is way under weight. His mom says it’s because he never stays still and burns up all his calories. I know that’s true..... you should sleep with him. He wiggles all night long :)

It’s so good to see so many who have been with him through the years. Good times, good friends. Can’t get any better than that.

BTW... Uncle G is going to be a daddy the end of the month and Logan says he’s going to be a big brother. Oh boy! I hope the world is ready for the 3 of them together.

Hugs to all........

Nana
