What makes my house my home

What makes your house a home? In my opinion my family makes my house a home, a house is just a structure without my family. The love my family has for me helps to make our house into a home. A house is just a structure made up of walls and wood but a home is a place to make memories. In my home me and my family love each other, we stick together and we help each other when we need it. Every monday night we sit down and watch movies together. The memories made in our home will stay with me whatever house I live in such as birthday pancakes in the age we’re turning to christmas morning mushroom toast. A lot of my memories are made at my grandparents home because they are my family. A house is just a structure, it protects you from the weather and things outside but it is no home. Without a family, a house is just a building. You can sleep in it, eat in it but it’s harder to make memories and share love. Everyone should have the feeling of having a home. One of my hopes is that everyone has the opportunity to make memories in a home, share love and make their house a home.
