The Things In A Home

Home has a lot of meanings, but to me it means family. When I hear the word home I think of my nice warm bed and stuffies. But that’s not all I think of, I also think of my family including my mom, my dad, my two brothers, and me. When I’m home I feel free, when I’m home I can be myself. Home is also the place I go to feel calm. Home is a feeling that you have when you feel loved. My home, my home is a place where I can go to feel loved and safe. Home is where your family is, home is where I see my family, home is where you feel like you're in a bag of marshmallows. Home smells like a nice warm fireplace. One of the most important things in my home is my dining table, it holds all of my memories. I love sitting around the table laughing, talking and recreating the memories that were already there and making a bunch of new memories. The reason I am writing this is because I want everyone to feel how I feel everyday. I want everyone around the world to have those memories around the dinner table, the couch, and the island. What really makes a home is not the stuff inside it, it's the people in them that makes your home a home. That’s what home means to me.
