Timelines and Television

So what do you do when you and your kids are on TV, but one of your kids has given up TV for Lent? Tough question, right? Think on that for a minute.....
We finally have our timeline up on the wall down here. It is so exciting. So we put it up going down the hallway in the basement. When you first get to the bottom of the stairs you are on the BC side, then the cross is right across the hall from the spare room door, and the AC years are down the rest of the hall to the family room. So far the only people on it are both dds, but I have pulled out the timeline figure for Bach, Handel, Alexander Graham Bell, and Helen Keller. So on Friday we will put them on our timeline. It is designed to be a review tool, so before we put them up, the kids have to tell me a bit about the person. I can't wait, this is so exciting.
Okay, so now back to the Lent question. We were asked to do an interview about homeschooling for a local TV station in our home, because there is a big baby boom in our city, and people are concerned as to whether or not there is going to be infrastructure to deal with it (really it seems a little Chicken Little-ish to me, cities adjust, I doubt that the sky is ACTUALLY falling - but anyway...). So we did a 4 minute interview, with 5 minutes of "B shots" which is just pictures of us "having school". I happened to see the broadcast live at a friend's when I was picking up some Classical Music CDs to borrow, so I knew that our whole segment of the story was probably less than 30 seconds, but since we were out and dd1 was at dance class we were taping it at home. When we got here she wanted to go see it and then we remembered about Lent. So what is a girl to do when she is making her TV debut? I would love to tell you that she decided to wait until Easter to watch the tape, but come on, she is only 8! I told her that since it was about school, and she was doing school, she could watch it! If it was a test, I suppose we failed, but it was pretty exciting!
Speaking of TV debuts, I have a friend whose daughter is making her television debut in Thursday's episode of CSI. If you are a fan of CSI - make sure you watch it!!!!!! She is a beautiful young girl - and I am so praying for her that this might be a big break for her!
