Meaning of Home

I have two homes. My one home is in Afghanistan and my other home is in Canada. My home in Canada is where I feel safe. I was born in Afghanistan. I remember my brother teaching me to ride a bike when I was 7 years old. He said, ”look straight and go”. Then I just went. I rode and rode and looked up. My mom, my dad, my two sisters and my three brothers are in Afghanistan. My mom’s mother and most of my family are in Afghanistan. In Afghanistan. I have friends. I played soccer and cricket with my friends. In soccer, they said to me “you have to be goalie”. My sister, my brother, and some of my cousins and I live here. I live with my sister and my cousin. When I go to school, my cousin sleeps. When I go home after school, my cousin is at work. My young cousin is I year old, and he is cute! When I push him a little, he says ”ta ta ta ta”. I like to push my cousin on the swing. When I first came to Canada, we went to a hotel. They gave us a book, a pencil and some colours. There was music on the keyboard. I love my family! Home means brothers, my sisters, my whole family in two countries. By Qudrat
