Sweet boy that’s a great bucket list. Maybe you could feed some ducks as well.. I think you would be entertained 🙂 Hang in there. You have a lot of people praying for you. I found out about you through your mom’s BBC board. Lots of hugs Logan.

Just wanted to let you know I have shared your bucket list on my business facebook page and have lots of people that plan to send you postcards from all over the country and even from Europe! http://www.facebook.com/mousehousecreations
I am a big supporter of SMA research because of a dear friend that went through it with her son 5 years ago. My thoughts are with you and your family.

Every little boy needs a picture with a fire truck! Call your local fire department. If you explain the situation they might be able to even bring a truck to your house. If not, maybe you could arrange to stop to/from one of Logan’s doctor appointments and they could have the truck ready, it would only take a moment.

I have been following your FB page for months now and felt compelled to reach out to you. Every night I lift Logan and your family up in prayer, always praying for a miracle to occur. My heart just melts when I see his precious smile in the photos you post! God knew what he was doing when he picked you to be Logan’s Momma. Your courage, strength and perseverance in the face of adversity is to be commended. I have several ideas I’d like to share for Logan’s bucket list:
1. Feel the grass between his toes, catch a butterfly, watch a ladybug land on his arm (I live in St. Louis, go to the Butterfly House where it is always springtime).
2. Plant perinnials to come back year after year, tulips, rosebushes and a redbud tree.
3. Go on a hayride, feel the warmth of a crackling fire, roast hotdogs and marshmellows. For dessert, of course, apple pie!
4. Swim with the dolphins in the Bahamas (I’m not sure if this is practical but the Dream Factory could certainly grant this amazing wish!)
5. Go to a Cardinals game, Opening Day is April 8th, I had the honor of working with Mr. Musial over the years. I am FB friends with his grandson, Brian Schwarze, who I know would set up a meet and greet with the players. Just let me know if your “game”!
6. Blow a dandelion into the wind.
7. Wear bunny ears, make a bunny cake decorated with coconut and jelly beans.
8. Drink Kool-aid, taste a hotdog and savor in the smell/feel of buttered popcorn.
9. Go to school with Lucas and create a masterpiece with the Art Teacher for Mommy & Daddy.
10. Arts & Crafts – Make a homemade frame out of macaroni noodles, glitter, fruit loops, ect.
11. Color with crayons, play with silly puddy, lincoln logs and legos.
12. Play in a creek, hold a frog, find a turtle.
13. Dance the Bunny Hop, Hokey Pokey and the duck dance.
14. Say the Pledge of Allegiance in front of the flag blowing in the breeze.
15. Play dress up with Daddy’s clothes, wear his favorite tie and put on cologne.
May the good Lord provide you precious time to accomplish all the dreams you have for your son. Each day is a blessing with new adventures to take place, God’s speed Logan!!! ❤

I want you to know how Logan’s story has touched me. I have a great appreciation for your family. I too have learned to live life one moment at a time, acceptance is the key. I think Logan is so beautiful, I know there is nothing really to say. The only words I know is that LOVE is the key to all and I know Logan has LOVE. May you have peace, praying for your family.
