Tiggers Question

<3Tiggers Question <3 She always wondered what home was but no one knew. So she went to her great great great grandma to ask her what she thought home meant. Tigger walked to her grandmother's house. So then she told her grandma that she wondered what home was. Her nan says "it is about memories and special things like traditions." Her grandmother then went on to explain that home is a place where we can be ourselves and there is no judgement. It's a special place and you should feel comfortable. "I didn't have a home when I was younger" her grandmother explained. My parents were poor and I got made fun. Eventually we were fortunate enough to have a house built by Habitat for Humanity and we were forever thankful for that. Our house became more than a house. I was our home. A place where we shared and continue to share memories, meals and traditions that make us feel like a connected family. Tigger said thanks to her grandma and ran to ask everyone and her mom and dad if they have a home? Mom said yes "OF COURSE we do. Our home is our special place where we live all together under one roof. The end!!!! written by Lexi Vokey Illustrated by Lexi Vokey
