My Home

A home is just a house but what really makes it a home is the people inside of it. My home is where I feel safe, comfortable, and happy. My home is where I live but a house is just where I stay. My home isn’t just a building with four walls, it is a place where I can do anything because a home has endless possibilities. But in a house, there are only a few things to do. The people inside of my home help me whenever I need it. Even my cat helps me when I am sad. A house is so empty that if you were to scream your words would come right back at you making you feel uncomfortable. In my home I eat so many yummy treats that fill my stomach with love. But in a house, there is food where you can get sick from. When I am in my home I can go outside to play and spend all day riding my scooter and then I can go back inside where it is safe. In my home my mom reads stories to me at bedtime which make me feel happy. At a house you would have to read books to yourself all alone in your room. That is what I do in my daily life at home. Thank you, Habitat for Humanity for building so many homes I appreciate your help for everything you do.
