Home, The Place Where I Belong

Home is where I can be anything I want to be, and I can be free in any I want to be free. To me home is a place where my family can snuggle up in my parents bed, and watch a movie until we fall asleep. Home is a place where we can go inside after a cold winter day and drink some warm hot chocolate while we are laughing over funny memories that we've had. Home is a place where I can be with my family when I am scared or sad and sleep in my warm cozy bed when I’m tired. Home is the place where we all belong. It is the place where I can make memories that last a lifetime. Home is where my family celebrates Hanukkah with the smell of freshly baked sufganiyot and the sight of all the candles on the hannukiah burning every night for eight nights straight. It is where everyone accepts you for who you are at all times, and doesn’t care what you’ve done because no matter what when you're at home the people around you will love you forever. Everyone deserves a home. Thank you Habitat for Humanity for giving people without homes a home to live in and in which create wonderful memories.
