Home in many forms

I am 11 years old and have lived in 4 provinces and 16 homes. To some that seems crazy but to me that is normal. We love adventures and meeting new people while experiencing our vast country - our moves have always been positive and exciting. What I've learned through each move is exactly what home is. Home is feeling safe Home is feeling joy Home is feel protected from either scorching hot temperatures or the bitter cold Canada offers Home is wherever our photos hang (and we have alot!) Home is where I can grow and learn Home is where I feel I can be my worst self and still be accepted Home is where it smells of moms cooking Home is where my dog greets me after school I am grateful for home.. wherever it is. We wish everyone could have a "home" - a place to feel safe, protected and loved.
