What a Home is to Me

Home. The place that makes me feel special all over. My dog hopping around happily as I walk through the door. Slobbery kisses all over my face. The smell of freshly baked brownies as the oven opens. Scrumptious food cooked by my Mom. What is a home to me? My Mom and Dad coming to greet me at the door. Their warm hugs making me feel loved. The smell of hot waffles as I walk down the stairs on a cold Sunday morning. Laughter when I tell my family a funny joke. Ha ha! That's the sound of them laughing. I see the quiet streets before I shut my eyes. I feel safe. Safety and love is a home to me. And everyone deserves a safe and loving home.
