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!!!

I'm just an adopted uncle, but he does have some wonderful parents and family.

That touching picture of Logan and his mommy personifies the love all the family has for this little punkin.

He's a sweetie! Thanks for the ping - so nice to see him so healthy and happy ~

With all the work involved with our move back to Texas I had not noticed until yesterday that my "preemie" is now taller than I am!!!! I am officially the shortest person in the family.....

Hi TC,
Thanks again for posting pictures of our boy. Happy to hear the reflux problem doesn't keep him from growing and gaining weight. He sure is sprouting.
Hope you had a good 4th. Give that slugger a hug and kiss for me.
Aunt Stanz.

Hi kiddo. THANK YOU for joining Logan's prayer team. God's been mighty good to him, and to all of us for praying for him.

Here, take a look-see!

And have a happy (what's left of it!) 4th of July weekend!!!

"I am officially the shortest person in the family....."

Only in stature, hon.
You're taller than a mountain in my books!

Now can I come over and have some cake and ice cream?

BTW: WHEN are you going to change your screen name??!

"Give that slugger a hug and kiss for me."

If everything goes according to plan, I'll see him on Thursday.

I know. It's rough duty, but somebody's gotta do it!

Why,..........yes!

I'm soooo sorry you're having problems (insert dripping sarcasm).
Maybe it's like that little trick you and LadyX did a few posts back.

OH sure. Rub it in. I'm gettin' mighty sick of hearing about YOU YOU YOU getting to hold the boy all the time. So? I'm moving in with Nana so I can hold him everyday.

Let's not say a word to her about this, OK? Uh......I think I'll just, oh, show up at the door with suitcases, sewing machineS, dog, Brad, fabrics, etc., in hand. Gulp. I'm thinking I'm not going. No. I take it back. Uh uh. This message will self-destruct in 5 seconds.
