Family is Home

The house smells of meals cooked by dad. The special herbs, and spices with a hint of love. It almost feels like my dad is a 5-star chef His food tastes like heaven in my mouth! But I can’t forget about my mom! She is nice and gives me hugs. Without her, I would cry. She is always there to help calm me down. When I am mad or sad, she is a doctor And when I get hurt, I can always count on her. When I hug my mom, I feel safe and warm But I can’t forget about my sister! When I hear my sister ring the doorbell, I get excited! I wonder what stories she has today. Once she comes in and gets changed. I give her a big ol' hug. I’m always interested to hear about how life is as an adult. My sister is always there When I have thought that just needs to come out! My family is my home. I see everyone eating at the dinner table, when I sit down. I hear all kinds of stuff. I see my sister and dad talking. I see my mom eating all the sauces. And I see a family. I think everyone should have a home and feel love within a shelter. Home is like a foundation of never-ending love. I hope everyone can experience that.
