One Home, One Family

Where the hot sun peaks through the frosted windows. When you snuggle up with a cup of hot chocolate that takes your breath away on a cold day. When you peer through the window to see beautiful blue jays fly in the air as they narrowly fade in the sunset. When you hug your pet on a cold weekend day. Home, Where I feel warm and cozy. When you come home and you're greeted with joyful barking of your dogs. When you walk into the house and the overwhelming smell of baked cookies flies through the air, like a dove to your nose. When the feeling of safeness wraps around you like a warm blanket. I feel safe and welcome here. When the summer sun swings in your face and over takes the feeling of sadness. When the beautiful roses and daisy effortlessly flutter in the wind as their blooming petals gently rise with the wind. When the smell of fresh cut grass swarms your nose and makes you feel weightless with the wind. When the taste of cold strawberry popsicles melt on your tongue on a hot day. Home, Where I feel loved and happy. When you walk outside on a snowy winter day and cold snowflakes glimmer through the air. When the light winter wind blows on your face when you walk outside. Where the feeling of love overwhelms you when you walk in. Home, This is where I belong and feel safe. This is home.
