What Does Home Mean to You?

What does home mean to you? For me it means family and loved ones. Also it means fresh water and food. You should be thankful for what you have. Nature is important to me as well and the great weather. Nature is important because it does a lot for us if you think about it so that is why you should be thankful for everything you have. And to me, what is very important is art. My great grandma was a very good artist. We have her art that she did all around my home. That is what makes a home, my home. Also more types of art like sewing. My grandma is a very good sewer and she makes decorations for holidays and for normal days. Home means a lot of things. One other thing is every year we put up a Christmas tree and on December 25 when you wake up there are presents under the Christmas tree. Lots of people do the same thing. It is a great tradition. That is one other thing that makes my home, home. Home could mean or be anything that is very important to you or very special to you. It could even mean one of your favourite pictures of something, as long as it makes you feel like home. We all have different things to be thankful for. One other thing that is important is to always have pets. They entertain us when we are bored and also make us happier than ever. They are so cute and loving and we never want to leave them sometimes. That is what home means to me. What also makes my home a home is when we have all sorts of other traditions like Thanksgiving and Easter. It is also where my bedroom and clothes are. One other thing is my home makes me feel safe. That is what my home is to me and means to me.
