House vs Home

This is about a home(It's the good one). It's my happy place, I have good memories there. A home is fun when I play chase the ace with my mom Kim and dad John and also when we play monopoly. I feel loved by my mom and dad and my cats Bonnie, Leon and Teddy. My room feels cozy when I'm under a blanket. I feel safe in my home. I feel happy there. And I feel calm there too. There is kindness there. Those are all the reasons why a home is better than a house. This is about a house ( It`s the bad one ). I don't feel safe there. A house is just a roof, walls, doors and windows and bricks. I feel lonely, sad and scared too. It's an empty building and dark. You can hear crickets there. It's where you live. It is dark there. It is a building not a home. Those are all the reasons a house is bad and a home is good. I hope that everyone has a home somewhere. Thank you Habitat for Humanity for the opportunity to participate in your contest!
