Rebecca Berrios, 10, was on her front porch with her siblings on New Year’s Eve when she lit fireworks that burned her entire house to the ground, reports KHOU.com
One firework lit another, and fueled by items placed outside for a yard sale, the fire spread quickly. Not only did the home burn down, but two vehicles were destroyed as well.
“I lost everything, but not my faith. I got my faith,” said father Marcos Berrios, who was doing work on the backyard when the blaze started.
The entire family, including pets, were able to escape.
