The young woman was praised for having a trustworthy brother who stuck to their home project. Her siblings started by buying bricks and lining them up in their yard.

The building plan was not overly complicated, as the builders only needed to extend the home in accordance with the original design. After construction was completed, the home decor was next on the list.

The lady had ceilings and lights installed in the passage and different rooms. They also painted the massive house to signal the completion of a successful project:

“We are reminded of where we came from. God is good.”
