Home is Not a House

A house is a place with 4 walls, a floor and a roof, while a home is a place where you can get away from the world, A house is a fancy place with pictures of fancy stuff, but home has life, and pictures of family. A home is where you put stuff on the fridge like photos of friends, A house is a place where you go to see if it's the right home for your family. A home is a place where you sleep, and isn where your mom and dad say good night Sweetheart, A home is a place where I can cry with my dog Daisy and a house is Empty inside no life just boxes. A home is where I can Laugh sing cry be happy be sad. But most of all a house is not a home at all house you move into well it takes years even decades to become a home But most of all never think a house is home. Thank you Habitat for Humanity for the effort you use day after day to build for sooooo many homes everyday.
