Home is Where the Family is

What comes to your mind when you hear “house?” Walls, doors, windows? Now, what comes to mind when you hear “home?” If a house is a place to live made up of walls then what is a home? To me, my home is also a place but it's made of a family. My home can be anywhere! It can be in my house, in a tent, in a hotel, or in a cabin. My home is like a feeling. In my home, I can feel comfort, fun, playful, clean or messy, majestic, and full of anything that makes you feel at home! To make a home I would need a family and a place I can draw and craft in. Now if we look back to what a home is, it's much more than just a structure! My home is located in my house. Sometimes it goes to a hotel or tent. It has beautiful bright blue walls. It smells like fresh flowers and has paintings made by my mom. It has many crafts made by me. It's playful and fun because of my brother, and it's always active and working because of my father! The home always smiles down on us! This is what makes my home!
