Couple of Prayer Requests

Two of my friends and their families need extra prayers tonight and in the upcoming days.

First - Little Patrick is a fellow preemie like our Paige. He was born last June 4th at only 28 weeks gestation and is a survivor in every sense of the word! He's recently been struggling with the croup and respiratory distress common this time of the year with preemies. He's really giving his Mom and Dad some scares though - with strider, wheezing, lower respiratory distress, and frequent trips to the hospital. Having been there ourselves, we know how tough it is and how scared we were.

Also - another internet blogging friend has lost their little boy this weekend. Baby Jacob was born with Trisomy 18 and passed away yesterday afternoon at only 4 months old. What a fighter he was! Most Trisomy babies live only hours. His family was very blessed to have 4 months with him and they are grieving his loss.

Please take a few minutes tonight and pray for both of these families.
