Family is Home

A home to me means to have a loving family that supports, loves and takes care of each other. A home is wherever your family is there with you. In a home not everything should be perfect but when arguments happen you should find a way to work things out, so everyone feels good in the end. You should always feel safe and loved and when you go to bed you should always think to yourself “that was a good day” and even if arguments had happened that day, you should still be able to say that because you would have figured out a way to work the argument out. In a home I think that you should have family times in the living room on the couch or in the dining room at the table. When you eat a meal, it doesn’t matter where you are as long as you are eating together with your family. You don’t have to have everything but some clean clothes, food, water, some where to sleep, and of course your family. In your family there should be laughter, joy, love, comfort, hope, kindness, happiness, and some mistakes because no family is perfect. That’s what makes us a family. It doesn’t matter if sometimes you are a little far apart as long as you always stay close with your family in the heart. In a home and with our family we use our manners, work hard together, and then you can play together. That is what a home means to me!
