Tammy Freitas had always wanted to remodel her home.
Ten days after the family’s tool shed caught fire and burned her
house to the ground, she said God must have wanted her to get a
move on with the project.

A little over a week ago, my house was standing,

she said Saturday.

Now there’s nothing. But you just have to breathe in, breathe
out and rebuild your life.

Freitas rarely altered her gaze from the charred skeleton of her
home
– because there was work to be done.
