What Makes A House A Home?

A house has people but a home has memories. A house has walls but a home has a family that protects you. A house keeps you away from rain but a home fills you up with joy. A house feels empty but a home is filled with love. A house has celebrations but a home has happiness. A house is a place where you feel lonely but a home has people you can talk to A house has a kitchen but a home has the smell of delicious food that your mom cooks. A house has a fireplace but a home has warmth. A house has a bed but a home has comfort. A house has a tv but a home has people you can spend time with. A house has furniture but a home has love. A house has a backyard but a home is where you can feel the warmth near the fireplace enjoying drinking hot chocolate with your family. “A HOME IS NOT JUST A HOUSE”
