My Home

My home has my family my nan/grandma. My nan is my mum's mum. She lives with us. We call her nan 'cause my sister stared calling her that when she was little, so we just call her that now. Her real name is Eleanor and she lives in our suite. I love it down in her suite and I sometimes go down there and read or play card games with my nan. My sister's name is Gianina but we call her Gia though because her name is long. She's sixteen. Her room is downstairs and my nan/grandma's house is also downstairs. My sister's room is mostly messy. I sometimes help her clean her room. Back before Gia was in that room, we'd sleep there in the summer during the heat dome because it was the coldest place in the house, but we do not sleep in there anymore because we got a heat pump. My mum's name is Evangelene. My dad's name is Graeme, so that's my family. I have two bunnies. They have their own room that used to be mine. It was my old room. It's light pink. (I was five when I chose the color.) That room now smells like a litterbox (bunny pee and hay.) When my extended family comes over, we all sit in the living room. It has a small couch. We make memories playing card games and board games and running around and being goofy! When it's winter, I curl up on the couch and read a book while drinking hot chocolate and watching the snow fall gently on the ground. Or I watch a movie with my family. It is so Cozy!!!! In my home I can ask for help. For example, if I need help with homework, I get help. I am never alone in my Home because I always either have my mom, my sister, my dad, my nan or my pets. The reason for me talking about my family more than my home is because my family Is my home.
