My Home

My home has love all around me. My home is special to me. My family has a beautiful home and we are grateful for it. My home has laughter and fun and love and so much more in it. I'm grateful for my family, a roof over my head, food to eat, water to drink and bathe with. I believe that a perfect home should not just be in books, you can have a perfect home too! My home is my safe place. It's where I feel comfortable and where I share hugs and kisses. It is where I care for my family, share memories and celebrate my traditions. In our house we celebrate: Christmas, Valentines Day, Mothers Day, and Fathers Day. We share memories, we laugh, we watch scary movies and so much more. I miss my home, which is Barbados. I grew up there for nine years and I'm only ten years old. I lost two dogs before I came to Canada. All the wonders I've seen so far are awesome! Like snow because it does not snow in Barbados. The oceans there are rainbow blue and aqua marine. I’m so grateful to have moved to Canada. Home is not a place, it’s somewhere you feel safe, where you feel seen and most of all, where you feel loved. Home is not a place. Home, where the heart is!
