You may have a house, but not a home

You may have a house but not a home, a home is a place where you can be safe.Where you laugh, play, have good and bad days, no matter what you deserve a home. Home is just like a safe place where you can escape. Everyone deserves a home. A house is a place where you don’t feel safe and have bad memories in but it's where you have to live. A home is where you can make memories with the ones you love like family and friends.You need a home not just to live but to love and to laugh, to open presents in the living room on Christmas morning or to go chocolate easter egg hunting on Easter morning. A home is not just a place with four walls and a roof, it's a place for love, hugs and laughter. I have a great home with lots of people I love. I want that for everyone too. To be cozy by the fire on a cold winter's night with hot coco in hand, or to be sitting on the couch eating popsicles on a hot summer's day. Thank you Habitat for Humanity for giving the chance to everyone who is not as privileged as us to have a home where they can be loved, safe, laugh and play.
