Today I discovered this really cool site for a Thursday meme, Thursday Challenge. And what do you know, the first task for me is find a photo that answers, HOME.. What makes a house a home? I am sure many of us have different answers, at different vantage points that is.

For me, my answer is simple. Where my Lili is, that is home. Lili is not a thing, she is, as you all know, my daughter. So for me, it is NOT a thing that makes a house a home. We can make do with what we have. Or buy what we do not have.. But if I see that familiar smile every morning as I wake, and that sleepyhead at night sprawled into bed, that is home..

But then again, here’s a photo with Lili and her favorite part of this house we’re staying at here in the island.. The net hammock out in the veranda..
