Homes and Houses

A home to me is somewhere that I feel safe and I do not have to be stressed out. You hear the birds chirping. I see something that I have seen before, so I do not have to be petrified. I am used to stuff that is in my home. If I just moved to a new house it would not look the same. Some people can be sad, scared and they feel that way because it is not the same as their home. When you move, at first it feels like a house, and you don't feel safe, and you are a little stressed out. You see new things. If you move to a city and you used to live in a small town everything is new to you. If you went to school at your old place you probably had some friends that you miss because you go to another school or you are home-schooled now. After a while, at your new house, it is more like a home. You feel safe again and You have made some new friends, and you probably know more about where you live, and your parents probably have jobs. You know more places and you went to fun places. Your parents probably have new friends. You might have a new doctor a new dentist. I know that if I had a new doctor, I would be scared If I had a new doctor because you do not know them. A house always turns into a home. When you move to your new house it is already a home. It might not feel like it, but your house is a home.
