What's home to me?

Home to me is a safe play to stay if something dangerous happens outside. The people I live with are my mom, sister, dad, and lastly my grandma. My culture makes me feel at home. My family's culture is Filipino. We love to celebrate Christmas. My mom cooks food for my family that my family loves. My mom and I decorate the house with Christmas lights. I’m grateful that I have a home to live in, because some families don't. A home doesn't need to be a big fancy mansion. It could be an apartment or house as long as it is safe and warm. Everyone deserves this. Canada is my home now, but the Philippines used to be my home. The Philippines and Canada are different, because in winter time in Canada it is cold, mosty -40 or -30 degrees. Winter in the Philippines was hot, but sometimes cold and rainy at midnight.
