What does Home Mean to Kitty

Kitty sits by the fire, its flames warm like his heart. Kitty has a nice brother, nothing can tear them apart. Mommy and Daddy make Kitty smile, time with them is always worthwhile. Homemade food makes Kitty feel safe, from Daddy's Chicken Soup to Mommy's spaghetti, dinner at home is always ready. Fights with brother might roll out, but in the end Kitty and brother love each other no doubt. Sleepovers with friends make Kitty happy, from pillow fights to warm saltwater taffy. The backyard is always fun, chasing butterflies and laying in the sun. We all work together to make the house shine, Kitty does the dishes and Mommy wipes the drawers. Kitty and Daddy always sing together, karaoke is fun when you’re feeling under the weather. Kitty’s room is filled with his treasures, his many books have made him clever. In the garage there's lots to learn, like which screw goes here and which one to turn. Home is a place for Kitty to be free. Home is a place for fun times with family. Home is a place where Kitty is safe. Home is a place where fun is to be had. Home is not just a place, it could be your family, it could be the love you feel around those you trust, it could be your favourite meals, it could be your siblings and friends. Home is a place where love is true, a place where you can just be you. Home is your safe place whenever you feel blue The word ‘Home’ means much more than a place to Kitty, it is a feeling, a memory, home is home.
