Family is the most important thing in the world. True that your friends are always there for you, but Family can bail you out of any situation.
With this being said, today we met our new families. By doing Garin Tzabar, one of the nice things is that we are given a family that we can go to for food, housing, or just have a mother or father figure to talk to while we are here.
My family is originally from Argentina (Bonus on the Spanish). They moved to the kibbutz three years ago. They also have three of the cuties and funniest kids ever. (Two girls and one boy. see mom, I finally have sisters.) They have one dog and many fish. The kids ages are between 6-10. The family is the best. Today, I got to finally eat a home cooked meal and then we went on a drive to Afula. The adopted family then went to Beer Sheva for 5 days. They said I could go with them next time, if my Commander lets me.
The families all live on the kibbutz and each family was parried with a kid from Garin, based on their personalities and if they wanted a gain kid. All the families are perfect and no one has complained about them.
While these families can never and will never replace our real families, it reminds us of them and they are great people, here to help us out of every situation that might occur.
