Home

Home is not just a building; it’s what makes you, YOU. Home is my happy place when I’m feeling blue. Home smells like warm waffles in the morning and my dog barking after school. Home is jumping on my trampoline and swimming in my pool. Home is relaxing on my cozy couch and piling my blankets up. Home is watching Harry Potter as he wins the Triwizard Cup. Home is sitting at the table, playing a game of cards. Home is playing with my sister in our big backyard. Home smells like my mom’s home-cooked meals. Home is curled up with my mom, laughing at Facebook reels. Home feels like my grandparents’ house in Newtown. Home is eating breakfast with my Nan in her nightgown. Home is riding on the water in my Pop’s fishing boat. Home is line dancing in the old fish plant, hitting every note. Home is riding on the quad down the sandy beach. Home is finding sea glass treasures where the ocean meets the beach. Home is sitting around the woodstove fire at my cabin. Home is where all of the family fun happens. Home is sharing all the good memories we’ve had. That is what home means to me!
