What Is A Home?

It is a small building with two to three levels or could be a small apartment. A home is a place where you feel like someone loves you. You should be able to feel like yourself there. You should also feel safe in a home. My home is a small building with three levels. On the first level we have a family room, a kitchen, a dining room and a closet where we hang our coats and put extra shoes. In our kitchen we make homemade food which makes us feel comfortable. We eat together as a family. The second level is my basement. Down there we have a toy room, a laundry room, bathroom,a closet where we have all our board games and my dad's room.The Fortunes mean the world to me because the board games to me represent we get to spend time as a family together On the third level we have my room, my mom's room, my sister's room, a bathroom closet where we keep extra towels, extra blankets, extra shampoo, toothpaste and toothbrushes. My room means a lot to me because it gives me a lot of privacy and just lets me be myself when I don't want to be around people. That's what's in my home. A small home just to build is 200-$300,000 just to build a small home and some families may or may not be able to pay that much for a small home so that's why we have Habitat for Humanity.
