The warmth of home

Matt the Squirrel was goofing with his sister Bella in the forest but it started to get late. So Matt and Bella decided to go home. It was a short walk home so they stayed quiet. When they got home Matt smelled a delicious aroma coming in.”Mum’s making cooked chestnuts.”Matt said excitedly.Matt and Bella raced their way to the kitchen following the delicious aroma. “Slow down you two.’’His father said gently “Excited for storytime? ’’Matt’s mother asked “Yes! And the food!’’Bella said with excitement. When Bella and Matt got their food they were feasting happily. When they were done eating Matt and Bella’s mom said” Time for story time.” “Finally!’’they exclaimed.”Now me and your father are going to tell a story of your home .Once upon a time there was a squirrel and that squirrel builded a cozy home and he got married and had kids and he changed,But it didn’t change at all. When you went past it it looked like it was smiling from ear to ear and all the colors were perfectly different.It wasn’t a house it was a “home”, a home was somewhere where you could leave memories and make them.It was the place where you could feel safe,loved and special all at the same time.It was the place where you could be anything you could imagine.Your home was where you smelled your mum’s delicious food and when you could read stories with your family. All your memories lay here so home is somewhere you should love with all your heart.” “Alright It’s time for bed.” “Good Night Papa and Mama” Matt and Bella said, giving them a kiss on the cheek.And that night Matt finally knew what home was all about.
