Congrats, Raquel!
Ronzalez believes that his last name (González) has caused many problems for his family. I suppose it could be true, although there are plenty of Gonzalezes on this forum who say it ain't so for them. I'd guess that there are other, much stronger, factors at work.
We humans are very poor at determining the true cause of a problem. We often look at anecdotal evidence, gut feelings, and even correlation studies (which don't study causation) and then think we've found the causes for things. Not so. The scientific method was developed to work around our inherently inadequate thought processes.
Our minds, however, don't use the scientific method on auto-pilot. Even well-trained scientists have trouble using the method well.
After many years of making errors myself, I value human reasoning, but I don't trust it.

¡Enhorabuena, Raquel!
Ronzalez cree que su apellido (González) ha causado muchos problemas a su familia. Supongo que podría ser verdad, aunque hay un montón de Gonzalezes en este foro que dicen que no es así para ellos. Creo que hay otros factores, los que son muchos más fuertes, funcionando en este caso.
Como seres humanos somos muy pobres en determinar la verdadera causa de un problema. A menudo vemos la evidencia anecdótica, reacciones instintivos, e incluso estudios de correlación (que no estudian relaciones de causalidad) y luego creemos que hemos encontrado las causas de cosas. No es así. El método científico fue desarrollado para manejar estos limitaciones en los procesos de pensamiento que son por sí insuficientes.
Nuestra mente, sin embargo, no use el método científico en piloto automático. Incluso los científicos bien entrenados tienen problemas para utilizar bien el método.
Después de muchos años de cometer errores yo mismo, valoro el razonamiento humano, pero no confío en ella.

Congratulations, Raquel! Nothing beats being a grandmother! And that Baby González, let me say that I do not carry that surname, but it's in my direct line of ascendence: I am the great-granddaughter of Amable González Abín, and thus descending from a long line of teachers, writers, poets, journalists: the González of Nueva de Llanes.

Best wishes to you and your family, Raquel. Saint Matthew was also one of the Apostles, and thus it's considered a Christian name in Europe, at least.
Either way, it's beautiful.

Quiero contarles que mi hija salio del hospital con el baby envuelto en
una sabanita de pique amarillo y bordada con la letra G ( de Gonzalez) en
blanco y terminada toda en encaje ancho blanco.
Tambien llevaba un pasador con la medallita de la Virgen Maria de la Caridad
por un lado y el Sagrado Corazon de Jesus en el otro lado...y su azabache!!!
Es costumbre Cubana cuando nacen los ninos, el regresar a la casa con el
bebe envuelto en la sabanita amarilla, el color amarillo por la Virgen Maria
de la Caridad, para que la Virgen los proteja con su manto y asi salio el
baby Gonzalez camino a su casa.
El bautizo sera en los proximos meses!!!
