Dancing Queen's Facemask Fourth Monthly Check-Up

Dancing Queen's check-up regarding her Facemask intervention with Dr. Magao...



Praise our great God because her Facemask will be worn on a MUCH SHORTER length of time from now on!



Development and protrusion of her upper jaw bone has been very good, so much so that her Impala bands were changed to Fox bands -- orthodontic bands which are softer and less painful than the Impala ones.



God is truly merciful and good. Our prayers are once again, answered. He is to be praised forever.

Give thanks to the LORD,
for he is good;
his love endures forever.
Psalm 106:1; 107:1

Gina in Advancing and Nurturing Tots in School

Dancing Queen was invited by her former teacher/school principal to perform a special dance number as an alumni, in their preschool's moving-up and graduation rites this morning. Of course, Dancing Queen obliged, and performed a freestyle dance solo number to the tune of Rockin' Robin. God be honored and praised for allowing our daughter to share her talent in dancing. To Him be the glory!




To touch, to move, to inspire.
This is the true gift of dance.

DS's 13th Piano Recital

DS just finished his Piano Recital held at the Mini Hall of my alma mater, the University of the Philippines, as a student in the College of Music's Extension Program. This is DS's 13th reciatal to date. I am just as nervous eversince the very first time that he had to play before a big audience, 4 years ago.

He played a long and complex piece by Russian composer, Sergei Rachmaninov, called "Barcarolle in G Minor op. 10 no. 3".

Here is the video for your enjoyment ---



All honor and praise to our God, the Giver of all gifts and talents.

There is nothing in the world
so much like prayer as music is.

DS On QueSci's 2nd Qualifying Examination

Praise God! Migs made it again in Quezon City Science High School's 2nd Qualifying Exam. We will now have a scholar in the family because tuition is FREE. But although it is free, the quality of education is not sacrificed, because the school is one of the top triumvirate Science high schools in the country.



We will have a 3rd and final screening on March 15 -- an interview, which is more like a getting-to-know-you kind of thing, and we are praying that we will do our best. I say "We", because the parent/s are included. :)



Quezon City Science High School, or "QueSci" as it is commonly called, is the premiere Science high school of Quezon City, our home city this side of the globe. It is a Regional Science High School, and we are truly and greatly blessed that Migs is one of the many hopefuls who made it there for his secondary education.

To God be the glory!

Give thanks to the LORD,
for he is good;
his love endures forever.
Psalm 107:1
