A Home Isn't A Just A House

Do you think a house is a home? In my home it's not just a house. In my home its love and care, its food and water, its friends and family. On a cold winter night, it is cozy and warm with hot chocolate inside. My home isn't just a building or a house, sometimes its dogs or cats or sisters or brothers. Some people have hamsters or fish. For some people their home is an apartment or even a tent! A house to me looks like just another building or sometimes a new home. A house you see, can be a home to other people. Maybe it's your old home. You can move and you can have two homes or some adults can still live in their childhood home. When I’m at my house sometimes I feel sad or even mad, but most of the time I'm happy! So to me, a house is not my home. It is the family inside of it that counts!
