Mac daddy

Now if you hadn’t notice that all our kids start with ‘Em’, so we wanted to stick with that.
Emerson: brave/ powerful
Daniel: God is my judge (honoring my paternal grandfather)


“Before I formed you in the womb I knew you, before you were born I set you apart; I appointed you as a prophet to the nations.”
-‭‭Jeremiah‬ ‭1:5‬‬
This verse has been sort of etched in my heart, not long after Emerson was born. Part of it I believe is that Emerson is our rainbow baby 🌈. Our family miscarried last year, just a few months prior to being surprised with this little guy. As I waited to head in, to what would be the first of 2 surgeries for my hand.
*I, in a fit of frustration after finding that my dog had 💩, in the kids bedroom. I attempted to slam our picket door, well let’s just say it slammed me. Within moments I noted the deformity of my left middle finger.
Anyhow, it seemed to be taking a while for the surgeon to come back, but I figured sometimes doctors are running late, I get it. As Dr. Roberts approached he states...Mrs. Calderon your PREGNANT! Huh, please repeat that, because I’m sure I misheard. I mean just 2 weeks prior in the ER the test was negative. Well he was sure, because he even had them repeat.
Well off I went into surgery. Upon returning to the recovery room, Elvin walks in. I’m pregnant...
WHAT? I thought you went to get your finger fixed? Yeah me too, but I’m also with child. Neither one of us was expecting this news, although we do have two older kids, so we know how things work😳

Once again we decided to not find out the gender of the baby. We just prayed for health for me and baby. Although Emmanuel, our eldest had apparently already named and claimed that he was having a baby brother. He had enough of his sister Emelia at this point. It didn’t help that my sister who was expecting was having a boy. So Manny knew his cousin was getting a baby brother. Mia could care less, but she had been seen being sweet to other children who were smaller than her.
God answers prayers because on 06/06/19 @20:23 weighing 8lbs 11oz our handsome baby boy was born. We were elated. Our family

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

Happy Birth day month!

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...
