Yipeee! Our Homeschooling Interview Goes LIVE Later! :) PLUS My "Wifely Steps" are finally up! :)

August 20, 2012 by Tina

Happy Monday, everyone! 🙂 

I’m sure all of you are enjoying the long weekend so far. 🙂 (If not, cheer up, friends! There is SO MUCH to be thankful for and rejoice over!)

As for me, although this long weekend isn’t much different from other weekends/weekdays (since I work from home Monday to Wednesday and we homeschool), well, I am still psyched because:

1. Our homeschool interview for ABS-CBN’s News Channel (ANC) is airing later — the first of a series of interviews featuring different homeschool families. 🙂 Praise the LORD! 🙂 Hope you guys can catch it on ANC, 5pm Top Story. (We don’t have cable so we’ll just wait for the reporter to send us the link to the video after the airing, hahaha!) Let me know if I do look like a raccoon during the interview, OK? Hehe!

By the way, as of now, the other schedules of the homeschooling stories on ANC are as follows:
  • The Benefits of Homeschooling Preschool: Featuring Mariel Uyquiengco and family + Maricel Cua and family — August 22, Wednesday, 12noon Dateline Philippines
  • Homeschooling High School: Featuring Michelle Padrelanan and family + and her son 🙂 — August 24, Friday, 5pm, Top Story

FYI, the features are very short, though in fairness, the shoot/interviews took SUPERRR looong! Haha! Nevertheless, we pray that God will be glorified through each segment, and that more and more parents will be open to the concept of homeschooling! 🙂
So anyway, another reason to be happy today (at least for me! Haha!) is:

2. My guest post over at Wifely Steps is finally up! 🙂 Yipeeee! 🙂

Thanks sooo much to Toni for posting it! 🙂 Please do go over and read it if you guys can — I shared a bit about how my husband and I got together after a “whirlwind” romance; the lessons I learned about marriage and motherhood from being on mission; and how H.O.T. my hubby is (and how H.O.T. I’d like to be, too)! 😉 

Click here to read the post. 😉 And check out Toni’s award-winning blog while you’re at it! She’s also on  and if you want to connect with her. 🙂

(By the way, in case you missed it, Toni did an inspiring guest post over here a while ago, on The Gift of Simple Living. Do check it out if you haven’t yet! 🙂

Enjoy the rest of the long weekend, folks! 🙂

We’re going to be on ANC! (And I will look like a raccoon, LOL!)

July 23, 2012 by Tina

Later today, a few of my fellow homeschooling moms, our kids and I will be interviewed by a reporter from ABS-CBN’s News Channel (ANC) about, well, what else, homeschooling! Please do say a prayer for us, that we will bring glory to God through what we say and do (and that our kids will cooperate, LOL)! 😀 Please also pray that Tim will feel better, as he was a bit feverish yesterday.

Also, on a rather shallow note, please pray that I will not look like a raccoon so much because I am still awake when I should be sleeping! Ha, ha! (Come to think of it, I hardly slept the night before hubby and I were interviewed on Family Matters either, but, well, I just realized ANC is viewed all over the world! GAAAAHHHHH!) Ha, ha! 😉

Actually, it doesn’t matter so much to me how I look. (Seriously!) 😉 I just really want to spread the message about homeschooling, and, indirectly, share about God’s amazing grace as well! 🙂 I’m still nervous about it though… ha, ha! Like, I said, please pray for us! Thanks, you guys! 😀

P.S. To everyone who has shown your support and prayers, especially on , THANK YOU! You guys are AWESOME, and I am so blessed because of you all! 🙂 Will keep you posted regarding the link to the news clip! 🙂 Special thanks to Mommy Levy of Living Life to the Fullest, now a homeschooling mom herself, for referring us to ABS-CBN! 🙂
