The Feeling of Home

Most people think home is making a house or adding cool and warming decorations but to me home is a feeling of joy, laughter and lots more. Home is the feeling of you knowing that you are loved and safe. I have two houses, one house for my dad’s and the other for my mom’s but I feel safe and loved at both. I feel loved by a lot of people but the way my sister shows her love for me is different. She shows her love through lots of ways like doing things for me even when she doesn’t want to. We sometimes wrestle. I even taught her how to do a backflip. I love a lot of people but I will never stop loving my family. This is why my family feels like home. When I think of home three things come to me: Feeling, hearing and people. The feeling I get when I'm around my friends and family is something I can’t explain. When I'm home I hear the laugh of my sister and I hear the sound of the fireplace or the fire alarm from my dad. When I think of home the biggest thing that pops in my head is my Friends and family. Home is way more than just a house to me.
