A Little Prayer

It has been a long an emotional kind of day. New babies always make me want to cry, but today was a different kind of emotional.

Our "little" guy is here, but he is not so little. He came into the world a whopping 10 pounds 2 ounces. Not quite the tiny baby his mommy was hoping for, but loved and cherished just the same. His birth was traumatic for everyone involved, but I'll leave the details to Bethany. Your prayers are coveted as our sweet grandson not only had a hard time making his way into the world, but is now battling an infection. (I really want to have a good long cry...) He is on IV antibiotics and will have an extended stay in the hospital. Not quite the delivery we had hoped for.

  7. Well, that is a strapping big baby! Better to fight an infection, too, than if he was a tiny 4-5 pounder. Hope all is well....love his name!
