It's where we share the most intimate moments and partake in horrendous arguments. Home is where we talk about taxes, dreams and fears. You know you're at home when you can't find the match to your sock, when you have to take out the trash, and when you tune in to the nightly news. We watch our children tear open first birthday gifts there. At Nana and Papa's, pencil marks on the wall record growth spurts year after year.
Home is the place to wrap up in a cozy blanket, eat popcorn and watch old black and white movies.
Snapshots of prom or Little League games dot the walls. Our favorite coffee cup sits in the cupboard. And tacky refrigerator magnets hold the coupons in place. Dogs and cats watch over our residences when we're not there. Some homes are built on mountains or float on the ocean.
