Home

A home starts as a pile of dirt. A lot of time and work is needed to build a nice house, and even more work is needed to build a home. The first step to making it your home is adding furniture that you feel comfortable with. Decorate your house to match your style. Paint, plants, and lights can help you make your home special. Build your family and don’t forget pets. Now your home has what it needs to be a home. The home part happens when you start to feel comfortable and safe and make memories with the people you love. That is what makes a house a home. My home is my happy place because it makes me feel safe after a long day. I can be myself and not worry about being different. I feel free to be me. My family makes me feel safe and happy at home. A home isn’t a home because of what you have in it; it’s a home because of the feelings it gives you.
