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!!!

What an idea!!

Heck, yeah! I'd be mailing letters to people I don't even know just to use the stamp!
I'd want the old fashioned lickable kind, though!

I wonder why our postal department doesn't think of things like that instead of bowing to the Muslims??!

Look at how smart he is, reaching for that toy. There is nothing wrong with that babies eyes. Lets remember to continue to pray for those sweet little peepers.

"People are telling me that the Web page is getting too big to load even with DSL.
I suggest everyone buy a mainframe computer and rent a space on a satellite so you can see all the pictures!"

LOL! This kid just might be worth it!
Do wish there could be a way found to post all of the pics...hate to miss seeing any of them. Thanks again for the labor of love.

One of the nicest feelings is feeling my heart melt with love when I see these adorable pictures. May God bless Logan, and keep him in His providential care that he grows up to be God's own, and continuing to bring goodness, joy, and love into the hearts of all who come to know him.

"hate to miss seeing any of them."

Well, you're not going to miss any of them.
I started making a "Best of Logan" page, and I wound up with 550 pictures out of 552.
The only ones I could leave out were of his pumpkin and his cat so I quit that effort.

I'm back to working on the thumbnail page.
That's the only way I can do it.

Mashed Potatoes! Hats! New toys! We don't want to miss a minute with Logan, God's precious baby (not so tiny any more.)

Or perhaps, a "Best of Logan" main-page

Excuse me. Please. While I know your intention is well-meant, isn't EVERY picture of Logan the Best? Isn't ANY page that has Logan's picture on it, a main page?

Really now, the sun shines brighter, the grass is greener, the sky is bluer, the snow is whiter, the food tastes better, the economy soars, DU becomes dumber, GW becomes BETTER, the bills get lost in the mail more often, your whites are whiter, your reds don't run in the wash, you NEVER get another computer virus, your husband ALWAYS does the dishes, your planes are always on time, your windows sparkle far more than the neighbors, I'm runnin' out of stuff here, people.... your garden becomes weed-LESS!, your pie crusts are lighter and flakier, your every meal is a success, the spring in your step is springier...........when you have Logan.

And no, I'M not biased. Who, Me? Hehe

"that Logan is healthy enough to have his canula removed by Christmas day!.."

I'm with you, dear lady!
Please God, hear our prayers!
Our boy really hates that canula!
Please let it be gone by Christmas!

Thank you, dear Lord, for all your blessings, and, especially, for letting us keep this precious little boy.
He is the light of so many lives.
We ask for your strength and comfort for him, dear Lord.
In Jesus name, we pray.
Amen.
