Where do you call home?

Is it a childhood home?

Is it a town you have lived in?

Is it the house where you reside?

Or is it something else?

Sometimes for me, it is the smell of the perfume that my mom used to wear or seeing a bend in the road that tells me I am "nearly" home. It is a receipe for my Nan's special Apple Pie or watching the Sound of Music on a rainy day.

Home isn't always about bricks and mortar, home is where you feel most comfortable, most contented and most at ease. I gave birth to my youngest daughter on our sofa, there is no certainly no greater feeling of being at ease than being able to give birth in your own home,(although many of our guests frequently ask when we are going to get a new sofa).

So is home a place, a person, a thing or somewhere to go? Is it material or spiritual? Or…is it all of the above?

I think honestly, home will always be going wherever my family is. I call that home. I associate HOME with love, warmth and comfort. It has nothing to do with a physical house or structure. It’s all about the love and warmth I get when I’m there. *insert warm fuzzy feeling*

Home is where memories are made.

What about you? Where do you call home?
