A home is Different for Everyone

Not everyone has a mom a dad or siblings. What home is to me is my family, every night we sit down at the table to eat, we don't have to be talking just enjoying each other's company. But a house is just different bare or painted walls nothing new, but home is different I smell my mom's cooking and hear my two moms talking it brings laughter and joy to are home. A house has sinks, beds all you think you need but it's missing a big part which is company from your family. Joy laughter has been brought to your house. You could have all the money but be very lonely, you may have pets doesn't that bring you joy cause i no my puppy brings me joy! You may not have a big big house but you don't need that to be happy what you do need is family, comfort, care, love! Home is when my family just talks about anything anything at all. Keep your loved ones near you need them and they need you. A house may have dressers, bathrooms, bedrooms but home is jumping on my trampoline in the summer my mom's barbecuing and me and my sister Ellie having fun. Home is also when me and Ellie making a snow fort drinking hot coco. I love when we all go shopping together and looking at all the stores. You never know how much you'll miss your family. A house is blank, dull no smiles no joy but home is different something else be considerate and be grateful for your family they won't be here forever. My family likes to go to hockey games we always have fun; we got seasons tickets this year! We're planning lots of water park trips this year to! A house may be next to a park, but a house can't be a home. Without family, pets, love, laughter big hearts from your family and friends. Thís is what home means to me!!! The meaning of home, not house!!!!
