A single mom, a singular dream: 14 kids and a house, please
Felicia Jackson made a promise to her sister, who was dying of cancer. She promised to take care of her sister’s children. All ten of them. And when her sister passed away, she kept that promise, even though she lost her job, got divorced, and often lived in temporary housing.
ABC’s Extreme Makeover: Home Edition wrangled a miracle recently, and the family moved into a home built for them. In a week.
No, it didn’t take all of them a week to move in.
It took Classic Homes a week to build the house.
Read the whole story on the Washington Post. It’s a keeper. Thank you, Universe, for taking care of folks like Ms. Jackson.

Felicia Jackson deserves every blessing that is coming her way because she has certainly been a blessing to her sister and her nieces and nephews. How awesome! My God, My God. Everytime I see her at the credit union she has a smile on her face no matter what she may have gone through. God bless you Felicia
