What Home Means To Me

Home is a place where I feel welcome and safe. After I get back from school I will talk to my family about my day, and what I did. After that I will play with my younger brother Luc. He is five years old. Then I will get to spend time with my family and play some of our favourite games like Uno, Sorry and Settlers of Catan and have a great time. Home is a place where I feel happy. When I come back from school I get greeted with a hug or a kiss. Home is also a place I feel cared for. When I am not feeling well, my mom might give me a hug or say that I need to rest in my bed and maybe I will feel better when I wake up. Then when it's time to go to bed my mom will tuck me in and pray that I will have a great sleep. Then when I wake up I think about people who don’t have a home. That’s where Habitat for Humanity comes in, giving people a safe home to live in and I’m very happy that's why I am never going to stop loving my home or giving up on my home.
