A home is a place where you can feel safe, loved, and happy. You can make memories with your family, sleep in a warm bed every night, and hear the laughter of those who you love all around you. When I get home from school I can look forward to relaxing and eating a delicious home-cooked meal. Before I tuck in for the night, I read a book in my bed and feel the softness of my cozy blankets keeping me warm as I drift off into a worryless sleep. I think of those who don't have a home or a bed and a warm meal every night. I think of those having to wake up and wonder if it is safe to sleep here again, if it is not safe then they have to run and find a place for their children. I think of the people who do not have clean clothes for school or even money to go to school. Some people don't know how lucky they are to have a home.
