Housebuilding day 3

Thankfully the backbreaking work of cement was completed yesterday. Today we could actually see significant progress in our work as the walls were put up and the beams for the tin roof. Tomorrow all we will have to do is complete the roof, window, and door. Our mom was around today. It was fun to see her face light up when she saw the walls up. She told us that now she would not have to be cold anymore. The kids sat around most of the day with big smiles on their faces watching our progress. You would all be proud of the students as most of us have not felt great for at least part of the trip but I have heard little to no complaints. Everyone has worked hard and have pulled together as a team.
