This Is My Home

My home is where we recover from pain and cuddle around blankets with warmth. It’s where we sip on a cup of hot cocoa and share stories. Artwork that hangs on the walls is filled with memories. My family gathers around for birthdays making memories that will never fade. A house isn't like a home, a home is where our memories lay but in a house there are no memories. My home is filled with memories that obtain love, joy and happiness. Home is a place where you can rest worry free, with the comfort of your family. Home is where memories are made. Home is where we learn from our mistakes and make them right. Home is a place where you can be responsible and mature, and it is a respectable and fun place. My home is filled with yummy smells and love. My home is where we share the joy of achieving hard things. It's the place where we don't give up and where we are worthy for the love our family provides. Home is the place where we get encouraged to try new things. My home helps bring people together and friends. Home is a place to forgive and forget the bad. My home is the place where I can be creative and happy. Home is the place where I do big projects and be myself. It is the place where music turns on while my family has a game night. My home is a place to be yourself and trust yourself. Home is a place where you sleep, live and love. It smells like freshly made cookies or it smells like love. Home is where you and your family live. My home is where we believe, comfort, and where we use nice, positive words. This is my home.
