Where the Story Begins of My Meaning of Home

Home is where I've been my entire life. Where I have been through every feeling I can describe. This is my home where I've grown up laughing, smiling and crying. It has memories that will last forever always by my side. When I say this is home no one could know what it means to me. There are so many memories in my home in pictures, furniture, and most importantly in our hearts. Pictures don’t just show what you were doing for fun there, they also show the memories that you made in your home with your family that mean so much to you. The furniture, perhaps the couch, holds so many tears, laughs, smiles, first steps and much more. It's where we watch a movie, read a book, or even just watch our phones but all those times are memories that can last in me forever in my heart. My mom cheers me up through the hardest times. My best friend who's there every step of the way. I've lived my whole life with her. She means so much to me and so does my family. They come first to me through everything any time there are the people who I rely on at many different times. Thank you so much to Habitat for Humanity for providing homes to others and letting others make special memories with their family at a special place called home too.
