WHAT MAKES HOME

When you are coming home from a long day at work or school you probably never think how lucky you are to have a place where you share memories, have shelter & have a family ♥️ Home is where your friendships ?are. It might be hard to believe that some children your age don’t have all that. This is what home means to me. Memories. A home is a place where you don’t need photo books filled with pictures because your home is made with memories and your home makes sure you never forget them ♥️ I also remember every time my family returns from a trip, like when we went to Florida, I was so happy ?to come back home, I never knew why but my home was calling me . Whenever I step into someone else's home I never feel the same way as I do when I step into my own home because I don’t have the same memories I have in my own home. Family. When I think of family I think of family pizza night and movies night. I think of a lot of hugs and cuddles. Family is love, I think it is very important to know that your family will always be there for you and will always love no matter what. I am very lucky and fortunate to have a family because so many people do not have a family that loves them I love my family very much.? The difference between a home ♥️ and a house ?. A house is a building with rooms, living rooms, kitchens, yards, pools, and some more things. Whereas a home is filled with love, peace, joy, family. We are so lucky to have homes ❤️?. I think it is a wonderful thing that Habitat for Humanity is going around Canada and building homes for people that don't have homes. Over 235,000 people are homes in Canada in a given year. I feel so bad for those people that don’t have homes and families. I think it is so great that you are doing that. That is what home means to me ❤️ my home is so special to me I will always treasure my home and I think you guys are the best to do this I wish you the best luck ?and that you succeed in your mission.
