What My House Means To Me

My home is somewhere I feel safe and loved. I love my family and they love me. Dad and I love to play games like video games, card games and board games. I love my home and the people who live there. When we first moved here I didn`t know anyone. I had to go to a new school. I did not like my new house. I didn't like it there at first but I got to meet new people. I didn`t like the house because it looked old and I didn’t know what to do so because of this my room was always a mess . 3 months later I was still not happy. I spent all my time alone. 2 more months later I got 2 new friends .They were so nice but the house was still not great. We were building a new kitchen . So every morning was loud because of the guy who was working in the kitchen. All of the tools were so loud. But then I made 6 new friends. But then I started to like the new house and in 2 years I love my house. I learned that home is not just a word, it means something to me anyone can have a house but to me home and house have a big difference in the meaning of house is just somewhere you sleep . The word home to me means love, safety and kindness. I love my home so much. And I always feel loved and appreciated. And that is what home means to me . Thank you Habitat of humanity for helping me love my home.
