What Home Means To Me

A home to me is sap on the ceiling from last year's Christmas tree. Home to me is curling up on the couch to watch a movie with my family. Home to me is eating meals with all my close friends. Home to me is a safe place where no one can harm me. A house is just windows and walls, but... A home is somewhere you're surrounded by people you love! Home to me is running water and a full fridge. Home to me is getting up super early for Christmas! Home to me is snuggling with my blanket and cats. Home to me is great cooked meals. Home to me is falling asleep to the rain on my roof. Home to me is food in the pantry from a couple years ago. A house is just a cold and lonely building, but... A home to me is laying down buried in stuffed animals. Home to me is sledding on the hill when it's snowy! Home to me is building snowmen til dark. Home to me is sitting down on the couch reading stories with my siblings! But... a house is just an empty place.
