A Home is not a house

My home is a place I feel loved and I feel like I belong. On cold winter days I sip hot coco with my family. A home is somewhere my siblings fight but home is also a place my siblings play together. We all have are ups and downs but a family is always there for you to lift you back up. A home is a place where I watch movies and shows snuggled up with my family. Have you ever felt like you just want to burst into tears. I feel that way too sometimes. But a home is a place that will get rid of that feeling. I love the taste of my moms delicious cookies. I love to see my brother showing off his rubix cube skills. I love the feeling of a warm hug. I love to hear the door open when my dad comes home from work. And I love the smell of my home because it gives me a feeling like I can do anything. We all have our favourite toys and yes sometimes we just walk through the doo with out saying anything. So when you get home remember that a house is not a home. "Everybody deserves a home."
