Many objects fit comfortably in the palms of our hands. Apples, coins, playing cards ... but not babies. At least not a newborn human baby boy of 6 or 7 pounds (approx. 3 kg).
Matthew Riddle III, of Louisville, Kentucky, was born a little different. Weighing in at just 1 pound 2 ounces at birth (approx. 510 g), little Matthew really could fit into the palms of his mom and dad’s loving hands. But he wasn’t a “preemie.” Matthew’s story is even more extraordinary.
