Helen's house before--handmade bricks fill the window openings.

Helen's house after--workers complete the final touches on the windows!

The new window has replaced the old bricks.

We waited with Helen's kids, anxious for her to come home and see the surprise!

Helen came home and was overwhelmed and speechless!

A new back door was pruchased by their neighbor and installed just last week. Previously they had used a piece of plywood propped up with a pole.

We walked 30 minutes down this quiet road to reach the boys' house.

The local school where the boys attend.

The house sits in the midst of banana plantations.

The view from their front door

Jean Bosco and Jean Paul, both sponsored by Carlos Mejia and family.

Little sister's dusty feet!

The entire family (and some curious neighborhood kids!) walk us out.
