What Home Really Is

Your first step into the unknown, you don't remember much of it but you wake up and it's a new day you get ready and your mom or dad makes some tasty classic. Bacon n Eggs, and here we are back again you still can not seem to remember what happened but now you can run! All you can remember is running down and having fun with your pets. The home I know is where I feel free to do anything. Home's a place where I feel loved. I feel free to be my weird self. Home is where I learned how to crawl, walk, and run! Now I can stand, run, and have a good time with my family and friends. Home is not just 4 sides and a roof it's where all the yummy warm food, cozy onesies, and hugs are. Jumping In the pool with my brother as we swim and splash, with the best mom ever, that Brings lunch to the side of the pool. The English word “home” is from the Old English word hām (not the pig) which actually refers to a village or estate where many “souls” are gathered. It implies there's a physical dwelling involved, but the main idea is that it's a gathering of people.
