Home, think about that word for a minute. Home. Well this is what I think it means. A house is a place where you cry, dance, spread joy, invite friends over. That's just the basics. A house is also where you meet a new sibling or a new cousin. Where you sleep , bake your first cake and play with toys. Home is special, really special. Not everyone has a house. But everyone has a home. There is a difference between a house and a home. A house is a big or small place with four walls and a roof. But a home,it's just way more. A home is not something you see. You can't feel it either. It's that warm feeling inside when you get to know your new sister or brother or cousin. That feeling of accomplishment when you bake your first cake. When you use your imagination to play with those toys. Like I said, not everyone has a house. Some people dont have four walls and a roof over their head. And that is why I'm writing this to help someone have a house. But they already have a home. You can move from house to house to house but you can't move or change your home. You can add to your home but you can't replace it. It's yours and will always be yours. You can add to it and sadly some might leave. But you'll always have that warm feeling inside your heart. And I hope this means as much to you as it does to me.
