What is a Home?

A home is a place for laughter and joy. This is what home means to me. A house could be a hockey rink or a bakery but a home is your own private space for game nights with family and the memories that you make in your house. A home can not be broken with the bond you form with your mom and dad. In the kitchen you can smell freshly baked cookies from your mom and nan and you hear laughter and music out of the kitchen speaker and see my pop dancing to the music. My nan clapping to the music and my dad saying breakfast is ready and me going down the stairs like it is Christmas morning. My pop saying slow down isn't going to run away on you. Thank you Habitat for Humanity for building houses for people.
