The Magic of a Home

When you step into a home, you can feel the magical love that is surrounding you. With a family or without a family, a house doesn’t feel like a home. In a home there are the people that you love. A house can be big, painted and decorated, but a home can be small and plain. A home is more than just a place where you live, it is a place where you can be yourself. In a house you can sleep in a bed, but in a home you can sleep with the comfort of your family surrounding you. A house has a roof and four walls, but a home has pillows and comfortable items. In a house you can tell jokes and no one is there to laugh at them, but in a home there will always be someone to laugh at your jokes. A house might have a pool to dive into, but a home has family hugs to await. When you feel sad you might plop on the couch in your house, but in a home you have people to talk to. I think everyone should have the opportunity to have a home.
