Meaning of Home

I think that home is when you walk in the door in the winter and your cheeks are still rosy from the cold. Home is when you smell the food in the oven and the cinnamon on the stove. It's when you are warm inside and there is no need to hide. It's also when you hear the fireplace crackling and hear the tv playing your favorite song. Home is not who you're with, it's who you want to be with. A home does not have to be big or small. If you sell a house it does not mean that you are losing all your memories, it means that you're making space for more memories! Home is more than a house. When I think of a home it is when you can say anything and no one will judge you, but a house sounds not as welcoming as a home. That is what I think about what a home is to me!
