Home is...

Home is… where at the dinner table, I can hear the chattering across the table while I munch on my delicious meal. Home is … where I can see my family in the living room, sitting on the sofa with a big fluffy blanket, watching our favourite show while eating fruits. Home is... where I can feel nostalgia every time my mom is making bread with me. The nostalgia triggers my memories. Home is…where I can smell the delicious meals my dad is making, and when I guess the food correctly, I can smell the food even when I step out of the house. Home is… where I can touch my yarn and start knitting or start crocheting. The fireplace sizzles like a real fireplace that's out in the backyard, the reading light flashing at me, making sure I can see. Home is where I can feel extra safe with my family. We help each other with anything, making each other satisfied. My family makes me feel joyful whenever I feel empty. I am grateful for everything my parents have done for me. They helped me when I struggled with studies, with homework, and they even helped me when I was doing a school project! To me, my parents are the greatest people ever!
