H.O.M.E

To me my home is not bricks or wood. Nor, stone or furniture. My home is a neighborhood. Where I can express my feelings. Where I can be safe with friendly beings. And with all the resources one could need. H is for Habitat For Humanity. It gives all of the people who need a home one. Thanks to Habitat for Humanity and our community who are helping people get houses that they need. O is for your Overjoyed. When I'm at home I feel lots of love. Like love from my family, my friends, but mostly my Dog. When I read to him he doesn't mind if I mispronounce words or if I feel lonely and need cuddles he will always be there! M, is for my Mother and Father. When times are tough, my parents will be there for me, like when i’m sad my parents will make me feel loved, and they will help me through my problems. When I'm annoyed because of my brother, my parents will help me through it. E, is for Enjoy. I want to Enjoy my time with my family, my friends, my food and my dog. When I play with my Brother and sister, I feel Enjoyed by all the fond memories that we made. I will remember those fun times, I will smile and say “ Wow! Remember when we went on the trampoline and I learned how to do my back-tuck?” And, once again, thank you to Habitat for Humanity for giving homes to people in need. Everyone who gets a home is probably very thankful for Habitat for Humanity!
