Hello to our special group of friends….

Today, as we celebrate Logan’s 2nd birthday, it seems like a lifetime ago that every hour was racked with fear that our little one wouldn’t make it. But make it he did…….and what a wondrous journey he has taken us on.

Logan now weighs a hefty 21+ pounds and is almost 32” long. That may be little to some, but for this baby, it’s made him a “mighty Termite” indeed!!

He has finally outgrown that terrible reflux, and other than chocking at times, he does really well. He’s had a bout with pneumonia recently and came through it like a champ. Of course, we protect him like she-wolves when RSV and flu season is around. But it’s been worth the effort. He has remained healthy and is thriving!!

He’s bright and funny and all boy. He loves to play in the water, drizzle sand all over everything, and is even learning to eat real food instead of baby food. He has a mouth full of teeth….. What can I say; he’s just a normal little boy! How much better can it get??

It’s been a year filled with joy for those of us who love Logan so. Without a very special lady (Brad’s Gramma) who started this thread, our family would have missed the loving friendship and prayers of all on FR who have become so dear to us. When Logan’s grown, he will be given the CD’s that his thread was copied to so that he can see how much everyone loved and prayed for him.

Sadly, it’s also been a year that we learned that our treasured “Uncle TC” was diagnosed with cancer and is now in the biggest fight he’s ever been in…….that of one for his very life. We missed him so at the party yesterday for the baby. It just didn’t seem right not to see that big, black truck pull up…..and the gentleman with his warm smile and famous hug come through the door. But he’ll be back….. and then he and his “little punkin” can walk in the country and smell the flowers. It’s the way God intended it to be.

And so as we begin the 3rd year of Logan’s life, we first want to thank all of you for always being there for our baby, for taking him into your hearts and for loving him as you do. We also want to ask all of you to pray for TC.

Our love, our appreciation and best wishes to all of you…….. We hope you’ll enjoy the pictures as Logan celebrates his birthday…..

I have tears of joy looking at that little darling!! He is quite big now, almost as big as Oliver, and by December if Oliver doesn't start growing really fast, Logan's gonna beat him! (Oliver is 6 months older but a peanut!)

I am very sad that TC couldn't be there, and I am sure he is, too.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, DEAR LITTLE LOGAN!!! You are so loved by us all!!!

Thanks for the pictures, Kathy. Happy Birthday, Logan. I am honored to be on the the many, many FReepers to watch you grow. You are truly an inspiration and although I will probably never meet you, I will always have your pictures hanging around me and will treasure you.

And of course, always praying for TC.

Love,

Auntbee
