At dark thirty in the morning
three generations
of this family's women went to work…
My 82 year old mother…my 15 year old daughter…and moi.
To help construct a Habitat for Humanity home.
With a whole slew of other women from the community.
see the whole line-up of darling homes down the street?…all community built…every nail.
Today it was all women. Sisters, grandmothers, mothers daughters…
Building hope and home for a deserving family.
When the noon whistle blew…the family who we were building for served us lunch
homemade tamales. yum.
thank you Senora Vargas!
We learned, we worked shoulder to shoulder...
We built.
Habitat for Humanity…advocating for
simple, decent
and affordable houses in every community.
Help. Build. Belong.
you won’t be sorry.
