Here's my list:




  • (1)  I am the most beautiful daughter my parents could ever have.  
  • My two brothers won’t complain.

  • (2)  I had a lot of names.





  • (3) They used to call me “Bakne” when I was a little child.
  • (4)  I don’t like my name before that’s why I created my own nickname “Ynnah Lorraine".
  • (5)  “Hanny”  was a product of Ynnah after reading it in front of a mirror.  It was discovered by my classmates in high school.  But they still call me Lorena.
  • (6)  I took up Medical Technology and my classmate in highscool, Lara took the same course.  So we became classmates in college.




  • (7)  Lara and I became a part of Inter-Varsity Christian Fellowship.  She Influenced our IVCF group to call me Hanny. 



  • (8)  I don’t hate the name Lorena anymore.  At last I came to realize how beautiful my name was.
  • (9)  I attended IVCF camps meet new friends – including Christian Bautista (not yet a famous singer that time)!  
  • (10)  I came to know my husband through a common friend - Melvin whom I also meet at the IVCF camp.

  • (11)  My husband is my first and last boyfriend!  No regrets.   

  • (12)  Yes! I am a pastor’s wife.  I didn’t prayed or wished to be one, but I know it was God’s calling.
  • (13)  I love being a hands- on mom.
  • (14)  I love breastfeeding.
  • (15)  I have three children. Joseph Celso -  4y/o, Eunice Lauren - turning 3 this September, and Soren James -  6months this August.  All of our children’s names are from Bible characters in combination of our names.

  • (16)  I will start homeschooling our eldest son this second week of August.  Hope we will be successful.
  • (17)  I love children.
  • (18)  That’s why I have volunteered teaching children in Sunday Schools since I was thirteen.
  • (19)  I don’t start conversations.   It is hard on my part specifically with new acquaintances.
  • (20)  I love to observe and listen.  Maybe one reason of giving me a hard time of vocally expressing myself.
  • (21)  I easily express myself in writing, gardening and crafting.
  • (22)  I love to cook and still want to learn more with this skill.
  • (23)  I crave for chocolates.
  • (24)  I chose not to pursue my career as a Medical Technologist for the benefit of my children and the church I belong.

  • (25)  I currently run a bakeshop business for our living; which is also a family business since I was a child.
  • (26)  I value family and relationships.
  • (27)  I love nature. 
  • (28)  When in trips I love to look at the car windows watching the clouds, trees and flowers.
  • (29)  I love beaches, walking in the sand and picking up shells and to see sunsets and sunrise.

  • (30)  Becoming a mom taught me of so many lessons in life.  One is to understand and love my parents more.  

I know I had so many things to learn more about blogging the reason why I join the BC Bloggers Group.  Want to join?  It is free just visit Mommy Diary hosted by Paula to learn more about the BC Bloggers.

Hi Hanny,

I also joined inter-school-christian fellowship when I was in High school. Tita Edna was the one handling the class in our school.

I am also contemplating to homeschool my five year old daughter. I have contacted SOT since she is currently enrolled in an SOT accredited school. But I still have to raise the money for the registrations. I know God will provide if this is His will for us.

thanks for dropping by.

Thanks to BC blogger I came to know you.

We get our homeschool curriculum from SOT. Yes the registration is big but it is for one time only. They give discounts for missionaries and pastor's children. I'm glad that we were able to receive financial blessings last summer. We used it for our son's enrollment.

We now have wives of pastors in BC bloggers...which I think is great :-)

HI Hanny! Like you, I also love nature and strolling on beaches and watching the sunrise or sunset are also one of my favorite quiet moments. You have 3 adorable kids and I think homeschooling is a good option. I'd go for that if I have kids hehe.

Mommy said...

Thanks for welcoming us in BC Blogger's group.

I know homeschooling is the best option we have for our children. I don't have to worry of how to manage bringing my son to school since the school is in our home. I want to establish his personality first the way we wanted and is only possible by spending time with my son and the rest of my children. When established, we don't have to worry about them when mixed with the crowd. I admit its also hard to homeschool preparing the lessons. Anyway it is for my children and I want the best for them.

Are you the same age with Christian Baustista? Ang kulit noh! Just like you, I also like to watch some sceneries at the car's window. Before, I can't sleep while travelling, pero now, natutulo ako if there is a chance.

Mommy said...

Hi Anne Lei! I was in my second year college during this time (2001), while Christian is in his 5th year taking landscape architecture in UP Manila. I used to call him kuya Ian. Mga 2-3years siguro age gap namin di ko makita ung aming camp directory. After the camp, I heard him join a theater group then the singing contest where he was discovered. After this, we loose our contact na.
