A True Home

A house is just a structure. It can have brick walls, metal roofs, glass windows, and hardwood floors. You can paint the walls, hang the curtains, furnish the rooms, and open the doors. But all these things you can see and touch are only one ingredient to a true home. A true home is a special recipe. You need a lot of love, compassion, understanding, and laughter. You need trust, respect, tolerance and care. A true home is a soft place to fall and where memories are created. Christmas mornings. Halloween nights. Birthday cakes. Snowball fights. Love, safety, and family; that's the recipe to a true home.
