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!!!

"But what was he doing in a rat cage?"

He kept crawing in the dog cage on his own. No one knows why.... it just seemed the place for him to play at the time. That's the way Logan does things....his way, his time.

Hi SW.... Nope, Logan is back home in Texas. He was there visiting his cousins for 6 days. His family was amazed at how beautiful downtown Chicago is and how clean it is. They loved their visit there.

I didn't make this outfit. It was a gift from the family to him when he got there. He's so used to trying on clothes, etc., and loves sunglasses. He's a HAM! Truthfully, Logan just loves life!!

Good morning OP and KV...

Those outlets are in a beautiful home outside of Chicago. I have no idea why they are installed that way. All of the pictures posted in this group were taken in the Chicago area. In Texas, we install them up and down. I too have some outlets that are waist high. Soooooooo much easier to get to!

Tell KV we're glad Logan brings laughter to him. The baby has the same effect on us and we're around him all the time. He's just a prankster! I can only imagine what he will be like later in life. Full of fun .. that's for sure.

Hugs from Texas.....

Nana

I do the same!
His picture is in my wallet next to my own kids!
I show it to people all of the time.
To remind me that MIRACLES DO HAPPEN!
And WE KNOW ONE!!!

Cutest little kid and what expressions he has. Amazing to see how far he has come and what fun he is having deservedly so after all he had been through. What a darling little boy. Thanks for the photos. Can see he is enjoying his summer fun as all children should. Thanks so much for sending photos...his progress is phenomenal! :)
