You are all in our thoughts and prayers, 24/7. Stay focused on the positives and plan for the future, these two have already proven to be true fighters!!

Little fingers and little toes
God go with you where ever thou goes. I look upon your tiny size I see myself in your tiny eyes.

You both lay there depending on others for your every need to supply and I am reminded that I too must on my God rely.

I see so much being taught by two. So many lessons to be seen in you. God created male and female-both equally dependent on Him. We all need His Son for deliverance from sin.

Even when we are very first born even then to Go we have perfect form. God doesn't expect the brand new not to stumble-sometimes the old ones fall-it keeps them humble.

Every life whether big or small depends on God who gives to all.

Olivia and Logan, you are so fragile, so dear and remind us all "Life is handled with prayer!"

Thanks so much for the pictures and updates it helps us know how to prayer. Keri Lawson (Laura Glunt's sister); September 10, 2007 at 2:05 PM

My dad (Sid Sowers) let me know about your precious babies and this webpage, so I thought I would stop by. 20 minutes and many tears later, I wanted to drop you a little note of encouragement. I can not imagine all of what you have been and are going through, but I am so impressed by your thankful heart and gracious spirit! I've got two little girls of my own, and you can be sure I will be hugging them tightly, over and over again! I will be praying for you and your beautiful family. I, too, believe that God was and is watching over you all. May God continue to bless you, and I will be praying for the day you can bring those darling bundles home! Isn't it hard to believe that over 20 years ago, we were kids playing in your basement? How the time flies! Hope you are having a good day today, and I will be sure to check in again soon.

Much love,

Never Before

NEVER BEFORE
by Jodi Glunt

Never before have I known such love
As that which I feel in my heart.
My beautiful daughter, although physically petite
Fills up an enormous part.

Never before have I seen such strength
From a person who weighed but a pound.
And yet she’s a fighter through and through
With very little that gets her down.

Never before have I heard such laughter
With an energy and zest for life.
She consistently shows me the wonder and joy
While overlooking the pain and strife.

Never before have I felt such mercy
From a God who has allowed me to raise
This miraculous, amazing daughter of mine
On earth, throughout all of my days.

A micropreemie shattering every prediction
About the life she had in store.
Teaching us all about the miracles within us
That we never quite realized before.

Playing In Heaven Instead by Jodi Glunt

You were the perfect little boy
Of whom we always dreamed.
Did you know we had your name picked out?
All along or so it seemed.

You even had your daddy’s hands
So miniature in size.
In life we never got to hold you
Or even see your opened eyes.

We had so many plans for you.
Did you know you are a twin?
I wanted you to grow up together.
What a pair you would have been!

I wanted to take you to the park
And push you on the swing.
I wanted to teach you how to walk,
And read and write and sing.

I wanted to show you a fire truck
And let you ride upon a horse.
I wanted to take you to the zoo
To see the giraffes, of course.

I wanted you to watch cartoons
And play video games with dad.
And you and I would take a nap
Oh, the times we would have had.

But, your mommy’s plans were not to be.
“I have other plans,” God said.
“You won't be playing in life’s playground
You’ll be playing in heaven instead.”

And although I ache with sadness
And in my arms I long to hold.
I’ll see you again in heaven
When my story on earth’s been told.

A Poem

A thousand tiny fireflies
Parading through the night
Illuminate the starless skies
With incandescent light
They are miracles, here on earth
So bold, so strong, so wise
And bring to life a sense of worth
For those who lack great size.

Some of this life’s smaller treasures
Are the ones which matter more
Than the larger joys and pleasures
That we have grown to adore
Volume is not as essential
As the gift that lies inside
Smaller souls with much potential
Who shall never be denied.

A thousand tiny fireflies
Parading through the night
Illuminate the starless skies
With incandescent light
These children, while born premature
Are testaments of worth
Their spirits bold, their futures sure
To ever bless the earth.
