Prayer Request...

Please keep my nephew Bennett in your prayers...

There isn't a specific incident that has happened that needs prayer, it's just things about Bennett that are concerning. For instance, he hasn't really been growing very well. He is barely on the charts for his length and isn't even on the charts for his weight. Ever since he was developing in the womb there was talk that he was going to be small. He just recently lost almost a pound while getting over a cough/cold. He hasn't been wanting to eat his solids or nurse. He doesn't have any teeth yet so that could be why he doesn't want to eat, but it is super stressful for my sister and her husband because he isn't growing as it is. It's so hard to know and understand that God is in control and has his arms wrapped around little Benne. Bennett has an appointment in Iowa City on the 17th of March. He will be seeing some specialized doctors. This was a planned visit ever since he was born. It's basically to see how he is developing and growing now that he is almost a year old. Please pray that Bennett will begin/continue to grow, that he will get over this nasty cough, that he will regain his appetite and that the doctors will have some answers for their family. One thing is for sure, Bennett doesn't think he's small. I captured him at just the right moment of him showing off how big he really is!!
