Home

In my home you can hear me laugh, you can see me do my traditions and you can see me spend time with my family. Home is really a place where you can spend time with family playing board games. Home is when you have ups and downs and you have a family to come back to even when I am in the most difficult situations. Your home and your family can keep you safe when storms and thunder rage outside and when you feel you are not safe in the outside world . When you do not feel safe from outside, remember you have a world of your own with your family and your home. Home is where love comes from. Your family will guide you to the right people if you need someone to talk to, to listen to and to care for you. When I think of home I think of my traditions. I think of Christmas traditions when I spend time with my family. We go for 8-9 nights working on doing a play and praying time. We have to do it every night when we pray in Simbagabi. We had to perform our play on the 21st of December last year. I got to play the angel part of the play and my sister too. We both think we did awesome! Also in Simbagabi we even saw a real baby to become baby Jesus . My traditions are a part of me. Also a thing that makes me happy being a Filipino. Home is a place where laughter belongs. Home can let you create jokes on one another and have fun. Laughter is a great thing to have in my home because laughter means that my family and I are happy. Being happy is important for families because it can show love for me and my family. Laughter in my home is ok. It is where my family can have fun with jokes. Jokes can make everyone happy, not just kids, even adults! We can feel safe by having laughter. Happiness can be everywhere, not even in one country. Love, kindness and laughter can stay forever. Home is a place where we are together as a family. Home is always a place where you will feel safe .
