What Home Means to me

A home is four walls that enclose the right people. A house has wood and bricks but a home has furniture, warmth and love. A house is blank but a home is full of memories and pictures. I feel safe in my home but not in a house. A house is just trusses and shingles, but a home has love that will forever stay there. A house is not a home without paw prints and the thumping of the pets playing together. In a home you can smell the kitty litter and the cat and dog food. You can see family and the yummy food waiting for you to eat in a home but in a house there is no family or food. A home is stuffies waiting to be played with.
