EXTREME MAKEOVER: HOME EDITION ON VALENTINE'S DAY 2010

Extreme MakeOver: Home Edition on ABC on Valentine's Day 2010 melted my heart! The special celebrity guest was Tyler Perry, www.tylerperry.com. The two families were The Tripp Family and Tom Lewis. They both love all the children in the neighborhood and mentor them. These two touching stories made me even more eager about starting my academy for future entrepreneurs!

The Tripp family were parents Tamara and Nikema and their three boys. They have a bus ministry where they pick up the local children and provide emotional support. The Tripps' have 7 blue buses. Tyler Perry used his own money to repair the Tripps' seven buses. He was very moved by the incredible love Tamara and Nikema show the neighborhood children. ABC was also moved, so they sent the Tripp's bus children to Disney to join them! Their home makeover was beautiful. The game room had a bus theme and was very large to accommodate more children.

Tom Lewis operates a school called The Fishing School. Like Tamara and Nikema Tripp, Mr. Lewis provides emotional support to the neighborhood children. His school was very small, and he had to turn families away. His school is now larger thanks to ABC. Tyler Perry was so moved, he opened a foundation in Mr. Lewis name.

This show was perfect for Valentine's Day. I love Extreme Makeover: Home Edition. I always cry with joy when I watch it. Now, everyday people can apply on-line to get on the bus and be a part of the "magic" on the show. I would love to apply. I even have show in mind similar to this show because I love it so much! Until I meet Ty Pennington one day, I hope Extreme Makeover: Home Edition remains on the air for the next 30 years! This show was all about education. I loved it!
