The Story Behind My Home

The place I stay dry. I hear the sweet sound of mom cooking. Walking down the stairs, marks of nail polish from the time I was doing makeovers. The magic of the pictures on the wall, keeping track of how we grow. Movie night with popcorn and the family. I feel safe, helpful and worthy. I can dream BIG, smile wide, and play hard. A place where I know I can do anything. Calmness flows through my body, I feel comfortable at home. I come home to big surprises and this time my parents go too far. As soon as I know it, I must call a new place home and I want to go back, but it is so far. After a few months I will call it home forever. The love fills the air. We took our chances, and they worked out great. Family and home are forever.
