Audio

Listen to the audio about one’s home. Families can spend their time differently at home. A father might enjoy some alone time in the study while a mother waters the plants. Some children might repair bikes in the garage while others chat with friends online. A home is supposed to be a safe space for each family member to relax and feel at peace.
