What makes a home

What makes a house is four walls and a roof, but what makes a home is much different. For starters, what makes a home is a place you find shelter or a safe place. A home can protect you from the rain, cold, heat, snow and the wind. Second, what makes a home is the memories that you made in said home. For example, the time you played your favorite board game with your family. Last but not least, what makes a home is not the price, size or luxury of the home. A house can be something small or luxurious but it still can be your home and still love it. All of that is what I think makes a home a home. Thank you Habitat for Humanity for starting this program and helping those in need of help.
