What I think of when I hear the word 'home' is Family and that's what I think makes a house a home. FAMILY is one of the most important things in life.
What makes a house a home? Is it your family? In my opinion, yes, that's part of what makes a house a home.
Another part of what makes a house a home is the way it's decorated. For example if a house is very dark shades
and it's the cleanest house you have ever seen then it's probably not going to feel very comfortable.
Maybe it's the things you do at your house that makes it your home. For me it wouldn't be a home if we didn't spend time as
a family, read the Bible, eat together, clean together, and The MOST important- loving one another.
Also, family can't be the only thing that makes a house a home, For example; when you go on a trip with your family and you've been staying in a hotel or cabin then you might say when you walk in the door-
"There's no place like home".
Now you have just been with your family for a week. If family WAS home then that wouldn't happen.
Where do you spend the most time? On an average day our answer would be; in our home. BUT just because we spend most of our time at home does NOT mean we don't do anything. We do school, cooking, cleaning, canning, sewing, knitting........
So.....do family and home go together?
I think the answer is yes.
Until next time
