Home Sweet Home

To me, home is a place where I can go to feel loved and safe. I am surrounded by my family that I love very much. Home is a place where I belong, from the long walks in the park to watching movies on the couch. Home is a place where traditions continue and memories are made. Home doesn’t need to be a place, home is where the heart is. Home is where myself and my sister’s laughter fills the house. Home is where me and my sister dance in each and every corner of the room, all day long. Home is where I can smell my mom and dad’s cooking. When I wake up in the morning, the beautiful smell of waffles and pancakes fill my house with love. Home is where we celebrate holidays with family and friends. Home is where we watch each other grow up. Home is also a place where walls have pictures hanging and floors have kids playing. Home is a place where we all gather around the table and enjoy each other's smiles. We might be getting older year by year, moving away and having our own homes, but home will never leave you, it will always be in your heart. Thank you so much habitat for humanity for giving me a great opportunity.
