My Parents Red Door








My parents red door is so unique; I swear you’ve never seen something like it. My whole house is white and that’s what makes it so bright. It used to be black, but now is red; I think it gives it something different from the rest. Lots of people now my parent’s house just for this, but I don’t mind a bit. My parents know everyone stops and stares, but they don’t actually care. I remember the day when my mom changed the color, we all where extremely shocked for that big change, but I think after a while it all seemed the same. The door has become popular around our neighborhood; it even got an award last June. Over and over they ask my mom if she plans to change it to black again, but she says it’s to boring to go back to that. She loves everything about it, the color, the texture and the personality it gives to our house, she likes having colors all around. My dad had not much of a say on the design decisions, his just happy to watch the transition. That red door means so much to the house, that’s the door where all special guest arrive. Its not open everyday, only special occasions make it a reason to be open.  I remember when my grandpas saw it; oh he was definitely surprised I bet he never thought my parents would decide such a change. At first he didn’t like it, he thought they went to far. But as the night went on he realized how good it looked in our home.  Lots of my friends make fun it, but I love the way it looks so much I wouldn’t change it a bit. I hope when I get married I have a pretty white house like my parents and maybe in a future I could paint my front door red to. Every day that I see that red door it makes me really happy. It reminds me of all the good moments that I’ve spent in my home. We have spent so many Christmases, parties and families gathering and all of the people that came to these events walked by the red door.  I don’t how much to time it would stay the way it is, you never know when my mom decides to change it, but as for now that white house with the bright red door is what I call home.
