Every Home is Special
My home has love and laughter in the air and the walls are filled with knowledge from my dad's cheesy pep talks. In my home, there are memories lined in gold frames by the fireplace, and there is always some treat being munched on. My home has a furry feline that can be naughty, but you can never be mad at him for a long time because he is just too cute.
The floors have been worn down with excitement from whenever I run to answer the door. The ceiling looks down on me when I am sleeping, with a smile in every crack or bump. The corners are filled with books of adventures, love stories and sorrows. In my home, if I need help it is just a door knock away. When it seems like it is raining cats and dogs outside, my family and I will be in my home snuggled up by a warm fire.
You can spend endless hours in the backyard of my home, soaking up the sun and running until you are so out of breath you feel as hot as a boiling kettle, with water steaming over the sides. My home has the heart and soul of my family because we have made so many memories in the rooms. So many memories, that when you try and remember them all you will lose count.
It is amazing that Habitat for Humanity is giving away homes to people in need. When they give these homes to people, they are giving them a chance to make all those happy memories and line them in gold squares just like I do. Everybody deserves a chance to make those memories and a home to make them in.
