Home is shelter, family is life.

What home means to me is more than my kitchen or a bedroom. It is my family. If my family was a sense I would explain it like this. One sense that my family could be is smell.I would smell my mom or dad cooking me a delicious meal. Another Sense that explains my home is that home is so much more than a sleeping place. It is when you get home from school and see your family sitting around the fire waiting for you. This sense is sight. One other sense is my family. The sense is feeling. The feeling of your family watching a movie together is golden. There are so many different kinds of senses but the one i’d use is sound. The sound of your family sleeping on christmas eve. This is what home means to me. It is so special to see a family getting a home. You are so kind to do that. If I didn’t have a home and my family had to live on the street my family would be so happy to have a home to live in. We would make so many memories and videos. But I don’t know how it feels to not have a house, because I have a house and i'm so happy to have a house that i live in. But it will make me so happy when you give the house to a very needing family. I'm going say one more sense. It is the taste of my family sitting around a table eating Thanksgiving dinner is so nice. I want every family to feel this sense. Thank you for reading my essay.THANK YOU!!!!
