Paul decided to help a local lady, Birdie, with her roof on her house. It was very old and leaking, and with all the rain, things seemed pretty bad. Paul raised the money to pay for the roof, tools, nails, supports, everything. He even put in all his birthday money he got this year. He got enough money and the day before we left, he and some of his friends met up at her house and got to work.
As with ALL of Paul's projects, this one took way longer than he had initially planned. He thought with all the help he had, that it would take only the morning. They started at 8am. Well, after many, many, delays and problems (broken tools, smashed and bleeding fingers, and lots of rain), they finished at 4:30pm.
The finished product was perfect. Birdie was happy and thankful. Paul is such an amazing person. So giving and thoughtful. I am so proud that he is my hubby.

Paul is always so willing to serve...what a great example for your little boys :) Seeing Birdie's modest home makes me so grateful for everything I have. Dominica taught me some priceless lessons that way.
What a genuinely unselfish, giving thing to do! I vove you so much, Paul!
