7th inning stretch



i'm not ashamed or too humble to say that malachi is a cute kid, a really cute kid. he comes by it honestly, just take a peek at his mom. despite the high bar set by big brother, conley is by all means holding his own. he's a fighter, he's defying the odds, he's a rockstar in all of those senses. but not only that, he's one good looking kid. miniature, but just gorgeous. he's also plumping out, and a few ounces away from four pounds. joey his neighbor appears to not be on the bubble CPAP anymore, either. please pray they both get over the final obstacles in their bumpy roads. conley needs to continue to wean on his low-flow nasal cannula oxygen, and we're also praying that as they introduce the bottle soon he'll be able to coordinate the whole suck, swallow, breathe process. thank you for your faithfulness in prayer, please don't let up. one day at a time
-love-

WOW-what a handsome son y'all have. Now that we can get a good look at his face and see him in clothes he is marvelous. Truely a miniature, but we are so excited about the weight gain. Big Al is calling him "the porker". He will fill out great and next year at this time we will be amazed at how far he has travelled. He's is going to bless your sox off beyond what you think he is doing now. God bless y'all and keep up the good work. Know that you are in our prayers daily. Love from the south, Jan
