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!!!

FREEPERS ARE FAMILY! Thanks for sharing the family pictures. Logan is a cutie and he "sparkles like a new penny". Could not believe the Logan online photo album, I can just see many Freeper Parents , thinking...hey...that is a great Idea...I have to get one of those. I would but my Daughter is 20 now. I have tons and tons of photos. Would be nice to have them all on disk. Glad you all had a great time at the Alamo, and with your Family Reunion :-)

Well, first thing on a Monday morning, tears running down my face and messing up my markup. What a beautiful site to see some of the finest FR there are. Thanks so very much for sharing. ((( Termite))).

Thank you for being here, AmericanMade.

It's doable with a regular photo album. It just takes a lot of scanning and sizing.
Logan's has been a labor of love for me.
I figure by the time he's twenty, there'll be eight million pictures on it.

I wanted to dispel these rumors going around that the Texas Termite doesn't really post on FR.
I heard someone say that they thought someone else did his posting!
Can you imagine??!
I don't know where people get these crazy ideas!

"tears running down my face and messing up my markup."

Heck, Texasgirl! If I wore make-up I would have started a new style of tear streaked make-up a long time ago!

Good to see you!

You were there when JimRob was in Austin, then Saturday in Houston, and now in San Antonio. Since I know you don't drink, you're skinny as a fence post, and I have never thought of you as a brown noser, what's up? Are you and JimRob gun running again? You know the FED's have warned you about that!

BTW the pictures of Logan are great. Give him a hug for me.

"hard to remember how secure and safe one felt in their mothers arms ."

I think that memory is buried deep in the recesses of our minds, but I think we all long for that security.
Someday Jesus will wrap us in His loving arms, and we'll know that feeling again.

Thank you for your prayers, old pard.
Good to see you.

These are super!
I'm so glad that our boy is feeling better and was able to entertain the number 1 celebrity in these parts. How lucky to have JimRob over for a visit.
What a scrapbook this kid is going to have!
Thanks, TC for all the pix....and...Happy Flag Day!

"Are you and JimRob gun running again?"

No, I've been lobbying for an Admin Mod's position.
They make the big bucks!
Beats the heck out of chasing drilling rigs!

So far JimRob doesn't think former Gyrenes qualify.
We have too many of those four letter words in our vocabulary that come out when a liberal disruptor starts posting.

Happy Flag Day, stanz!

We were all kind of holding our breath about Logan's health holding for the gathering.
He was one sick little boy the day before.
He didn't disappoint us. He was his usual bubbling, joyful self.
He loves people. He'd upchuck, then get right back into the party.
