What Home Means to Me

The sound of joy and laughter spreading from room to room is all we need to have a perfect home. Most people think a home is a structure, a square made from wood or brick but that's not a home that's just something to keep us warm and dry To me a home is more than a building, it's not about a big flat screen TV. It's about the memories that you are able to make with your family. Not everyone has a place to keep them dry or even a shower or bed to sleep in and keep them clean or even hot and yummy home cooked meals. There are tons of shelters out there for the homeless that are full and can’t fit anymore people and there are thousands if not millions of families that don't have a home. Home to me is the memories that we make as a family and I am just so thankful to have a home and a house to stay in and get clean and sleep.
