Happy birthday Mia!

-

Hello and good morning. Today’s post is a bit different from the rest. As of late I have become quite nostalgic wanting to hold on to as many memories as possible. Of course Emerson’s health most likely catapulted me into this, which is just fine by me. 
So after my Emmanuel had his first birthday, his godfather Stephen Jr.  and his family made an album of  pictures from his birthday. I thought in that moment, what great memories this will be when Manny gets older. I told myself then, that for every birthday I would add pictures. I of course continued the tradition when I had my daughter Emelia.


In honor of her 3rd birthday today I wanted to write her a note. 
My dearest Mia,
 Three years ago, after waiting an additional week of waiting for you to join us, I was given the greatest honor of becoming your mom. It seems like a blur, but I can recall every moment when you entered this world. 
Since you have entered me and daddy’s world our lives have not been the same. Your big brother has endured much brutality, from pulling hair and bites, to the multiple attempts of speaking his names (as you affectionately say Nanny). All in love I would say. You are growing each day into a beautiful girl. Though it may seem that you are stubborn, you just like to take your time when it comes to doing things (walking @ 17 months, finally talking in full sentences this past few months). This pst year you got the gift of being big sister, which you have taken such sweet care to baby Mac. He sure does love your tight squeezes and kisses. I can only pray that our examples as your parents will  reinforce the love that Jesus has for you. 
Happy 3rd birthday, cant wait to celebrate more. 

Love mommy

Caution, this post is real, as they all are. However it may make some of you uncomfortable.  Have you every watched Moana? There is a scene where moana is after Maui. Well in the middle of the night as she is voyaging there is a storm, she ask the water to help. She wakes up ship wrecked on an island and is upset, because she believes she is off course. She realizes she landed on the island where Maui has been. Well let me give you a better picture. The disciples sitting in a boat, and there is a bad storm. All the while Jesus is asleep. WHAT! The disciples in fear of drowning awoke Jesus.  “And they went and woke him, saying, "Save us, Lord; we are perishing." And he said to them, "Why are you afraid, O you of little faith?" Then he rose and rebuked the winds and the sea, and there was a great calm. And the men marveled, saying, "What sort of man is this, that even winds and sea obey him?"” ‭‭Matthew‬ ‭8:25-27‬  Since Emerson was diagnosed I have held on ...

New Beginnings...

So as many of you may know our family is not on any sort of social media. However since the birth of our 3rd child, Emerson Daniel, this past summer, I wanted an opportunity to keep those whom are close to use up to date with our lives. As you may come to notice that I will be writing a lot about our youngest as we have been given some medical mysteries with this guy. God has and always been faithful to us during this time. Now I am hoping you will be patient with me, as this whole blogging is fairly new to me. As you will see there are pages, with specified topics. However new updates should show up on the main page when you check in. Please do not hesitate to leave messages, and above all prayers. In Christ The Calderons

Good morning.  I want to only place thoughts in my head and my heart that are going to leave lasting memories. This is sometimes hard to do. I’ve realized this as I walk with Christ. Many assume that oh those Jesus loving folk got it all together, they just call on His name and blessings rain down. Well yeah that’s true...but even the most righteous have to go through trials and tribulations. I mean have you heard of Job, he got his world turned upside down. Watch to find out about Job So is everything Emerson going through fair? As his mother I would say absolutely not. Do I believe there is a greater purpose in all of Mac’s suffering and his road to recovery and being rid of this leukemia? YES! So despite my flesh wanting to yell from mountain top of how unfair this all is, my spirit desires that I continue to trust in Jesus and his plan for my son. Now that doesn’t mean I disregard treatment or forsake the wisdom and knowledge of the     medical staff. I kn...
