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!!!
Shhhhh......I was just trying to discourage Auntie N!
Uh, by the way, Termite..........I just realized what you need to complete your animal zoo..........a big, pretty RATTLESNAKE!!

YEAH! Take THAT! Thanks Eaker...isn't he cute?????? Thanks TC for the pics! Do you need the ping list again? I'll be happy to send it to you...
Is it time yet? Is it time yet? Is it time yet?
The first time Eaker says that I'm cute, I'm outta here!
No, I don't need a ping list.
The one Tonk sent me covers the whole darn forum!
Is this for real?
If it is, I am thrilled from top to bottom!
I well remember posting that it was when you were seated on that plane flying to hold Nana's beloved grandchild, that I would be sitting back just shouting with glee. It has been a marker for me....and I hope you will do me the honor of pinging me to the post where you are saying goodbye to us as you leave to meet, cuddle and generally gush over this miracle child.
TC is a man of God.
Logan is a child of God, most blessed and loved, and we are family here, no doubt about it.
So babe-give me a ping....I wanna know the day you step onto that plane!!!
I thought I pinged the whole forum!
Okay, let's try this one more time!
PLEASE SEE POST #5787!
Seeing you at home with your mommy brings tears to my eyes. This was what we all prayed for. You didn't know it but you had people around the world praying and pulling for you. People in places that don't have internet or even electricity were told about you and asked to pray.
You are still being prayed for, for your health, happiness and safety. (And for your mommy because I have the feeling that you are going to be a terror when you get a little older)
Good night little one. Sweet dreams. And don’t believe everything BG tells you about teddy bears.
