The meaning of home

Home means love, hope,joy, and memories. My home is filled with memories of my grandparents, my dad's grandparents, all 7 of my aunts, all 8 of my uncles, and all 12 of my cousins. My house is nowhere near how important my home is. I own a house made with wood, black paint, installation, bricks, and shingles. In our family, we move a lot but we always have the same home no matter where we are at home. We have do not have a lot of traditions because we never stay at one house for longer than 1 year. I have 4 brothers and 2 sisters. As you can see I have a big family. Well, maybe I counted dogs as family anyways the number of my family members without dogs is 31. We have plenty of traditions like North family Christmas, North family scavenger hunt, and Dorte family Christmas. We have a lot of animals. We have 2 English bulldogs, a mix of Doberman and black lab and 2 gray cats. Home means somewhere you can speak the truth to. Somewhere you can feel comfortable with. Now that is the meaning of home to me.
