Every person loves and appreciates his home and his family. Because the house is considered a private fortress where you can escape from all the ills of life, and the people who live in it who will always understand and support in difficult times – and have a family. And role for each of us is huge. After all, with a family connected to all the first impressions and views of a person when he is just beginning to understand the world around us. And later the family is shaped by such human concepts as love and care. No wonder the family is called a cell of society, the small home. It is the human person, there is the education of the individual. So usually what the person had family, depends on what he became. For me, my family is the most important thing in life. Families for all – those dearest and closest people who have been with him since childhood. And the main role in creating the family belongs to the mother. A woman can be a brilliant expert in any field, however, the most important role in society, something that will not be able to handle that no man is the creation of a family. A woman in ancient times was a homemaker. It was assigned all the work around the house. In addition, she had to create a home environment to other family members feel the warmth and comfort of home felt like a family – a single entity. This is a very difficult and demanding job, but the woman always cope with her. Now at all other times. Woman busy at work and home is less time. However, it is now many years ago, saves house, creates, supports and strengthens the family. Mom is the most person close to me. I believe that the head of the family is, after all, mother. Of course, the family was nice and friendly, one forces a mother is not enough. All family members should strive to create a family climate. Because the family is, first and foremost, the staff. Family traditions are very important to everyone in the family feel a member had with the rest of the family something in common. And of course every family have their own dates that are memorable to all their family events. Our family looks forward to their coming because they bring you joy. But not only this nice family tradition. Spending an evening with parents, children also feel like full members of the family, and this is very common. It is important that in any family there was trust and understanding, love and care about each other. Family is so good that there is a man always remains himself, and under no circumstances it will not stop loving, will always understand and support. The family is the most important support for any person that needs to stay with him forever.Source: http://uchim.org/sochineniya/na-temu-moya-semya

I think, every person always dreams about the place where he can speak about his problems, chat with close friends, where he can feel happy and quiet. For me it is my family and my home. It is the best place in the world and my dearest people live here.

My family is not large we are 4. I have a father, a mother and a brother. We all live together in a new flat. My father is 45. He is a tall and well-built man with short black hair and grey eyes. He is quiet and hardworking . Really, he is a bread maker of the family. Dad is handy with many things. His hobby is fixing everything at home. My mother is very lively. She is life and soul of the family. She is a pleasant woman of forty with beautiful chestnut hair and dark brown eyes. She is a lofty ideal for me.

My parents have been married for 20 years they have much in common, in everyday life Dad is impractical and needs mother to look after him. Parents have different views on music, books, films. For example, my father likes horror films. My father is a football fan and Mum doesn't like sports. But they try to have the same opinion about the education and upbringing of their children. My brother is only 11. He goes to school. He is funny and curious. He is constantly asking many questions often silly ones. But this only a moment - I can't imagine my life without our little monster. We all feel happy when we are together.

In the evenings we often have little gatherings in the kitchen by the cup of tea, chatting, laughing and discussing the events of the day. Those evening are the best of all. But sometimes I have problems with my parents. They don't like the clothes I wear the music I listen to and the friends I bring home. It's not easy to be a teenager.

In summer I visit my Granny. I love her when I was a child she used to tell me fairytales and stories of her life. My parents are hardworking. They combine work with housekeeping. Mum manages our household very well. We all are in the habit of helping her to run the house.  Our relatives and friends like to come to our place. My parents are very hospitable everybody feels at home in their flat.
