Home, the Most Wonderful Place to Be. :)
Home is my Mother’s cooking and the delicious food she makes. Home is the scent of homemade chocolate chip cookies baking in the oven.
Home is the sound of my budgies tweeting happily, and the tails waiting at the door patiently for their friends to get home.
My spring home is the large garden we plant annually. Fresh berries, tomatoes, lettuce and cucumbers galore. That means fresh garden salads all of the time.
My summer home is the sounds of splashes coming from the pool, suntanning and endless popsicles and barbecued food cooking as we splash around.
The taste of rocket popsicles and ice cream sundaes fill us with joy and happiness as we sit outside, making memories with each other.
My autumn home is the hustle of back to school, routines and catching up with friends. Crisp air is blowing all around and there is jumping in leaf piles. The smell of warm homemade pumpkin pie fills us with excitement as we get home from school.
My holiday home is filled with scents of gingerbread and spiced candles. The colour of red, green and gold is scattered throughout our home with sparkles exactly where it's needed. It’s a time of joy, happiness, excitement and Christmas movies on repeat. We cuddle under our blankets while we admire the beauty of all the Christmas decorations around our house. The Christmas tree glitters as we drink hot chocolate with marshmallows and peppermint sprinkled on top.
I am so glad to have the wonderful home I have, and to have all of my family and pets. Overall, a house is a structure that we live in and a home is a loving place to feel safe and protected in.
This is what home means to me.
