What Home Really Means

A house and a home are two different things. A house has a roof and four walls but a home is so much more. A home is where memories flow and the air is filled with love and people you know. Home is so many different things. It's where creativity flows. It's cuddles with your pet. It’s a warm yummy meal. It's laughter. It's feeling cozy in your bed. A home could be the size of a mansion or a tiny apartment, but all that matters at the end of the day is being with the people you love in a space that feels safe. When you're in your home you can be yourself and run free no matter what. Home means being with the people you cherish forever. Home is family.
