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!!!
Lord,
Thank you for bringing Logan into this world.
Thank you for his family for sharing him with us.
Thank you for what has become his extended FReeper family.
Lord, thank you for combining all this, for bringing Logan to his first birthday.
And Lord, through it all, you've brought all of us closer to you.
May we continue in that closeness to you and give you all honor and glory and praise.
In the name of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ,
Amen
What great pics, TC. Thanks. Happy birthday, Logan!
BTT!!!!!!!
Thank you for that beautiful prayer, Dave.
We've all begun a closer walk with the Lord through this miracle named Logan.
He has affected so many people so deeply, and we'll never be the same as we were before his entrance into our world.
Thank you, dear Father, for this blessing.
His Nana said that icing was harder to get off than lard!
LOL!
My youngest son had a food-coloring-green nose for a day after his first b-day. That stuff doesn't just rinse off :o)
WOW! Thanks TC for sharing the pictures of his birthday with us. He is something, isn't he! I pray he goes into the world one day to do great things.
I was thinking how sad it will be when Logan goes to school, and most likely will get picked on by other kids who will never know how special he is.
I'm starting my day off with tears in my eyes. Thank you TC for all you have done this past year to keep us all updated on precious Logan.
Hi...Beachn4fun,
Just read your post...# 9668.
And I truly Believe that when our Boy goes to School...
THE Same LORD that Brought him through his First: Minutes, Hours, Days, Weeks and Months of a really Rough Start Will BE THERE for LOGAN ALL through his LIFE!
LOGAN will ALWAYS be Very Well Protected By THE HAND OF THE LORD and his FAMILY.
So...Please don't fret, and always Remember to Lift Up our Precious Little One in PRAYER.
Hi. Thanks for the encouragement.
Happy Birthday Termite ~ Great Pix ~ Thanks TC ~ Bump!
That's our boy! Thanks TC and Logan's family - both real and Virtual - for one of the blessings of my life: sharing in Logan's.
So very true!
Neat party pictures.. it looks like a good time was had by all, especially the guest of honor!
We thank you, Lord, for the many blessings of the past year, and all those ahead. Please, Father, keep your hand on this special little boy and his family, and see him through every day of his life.
In addition to thank you, another word sums up what his story brings - -
I'm so happy that Logan and everyone had such a great time on his birthday. He is such a doll; a precious lamb.
God Bless all of you.
Love,
Donna
Fantastic pictures! And a Happy Birthday to Logan :-)
What wonderful pictures - they bring tears to my eyes. Our little guy has come a looooong way! Praise God!
Logan's bright eyes and big smile are just wonderful to see. What a happy boy! His mother and father's obvious pride and happiness is heart warming to behold. Plant a kiss on his little nose for me, won't you? Happy Birthday Logan!
