A Place Where I Can Feel Safe

I love when I come home from school tired and annoyed and smell my mom’s good cooking. Isn’t it nice when I’m sitting next to my family and eating popcorn while, we’re watching a movie. I love when I’m sitting next to my sister, warm in bed, and we talk about our day. Isn’t it nice when my family and I are having a game night, and we’re laughing and having fun. Home is a place where I can feel safe and loved. I love when I come in from playing in the snow, so cold and I have some hot chocolate to warm me up. Home is the place where I celebrate Christmas having fun with my family. I love to bake with my sisters and make memories. When I think of home, I think of all the memories I have and all the laughter I’ve shared. Home is having fun karaoke nights with my family. When we fill the house with balloons for birthdays. Home is waking up to the smell of za’atar cooking in the oven.
