Home is...

Home isn’t just a house. It is a place where I feel safe. It is just perfect for me. It is the place that when I’m feeling down, I can be loved no matter what. The comfort of my family loving me exactly the way I am. Ways to make happy memories, losing your first tooth, getting all the answers right on your homework home is full of happy memories. Home is where I have fun. Hiding in the laundry room. Playing baseball in the backyard and football in the street. Home is the place to play. When I hear the sound of that funky music at 7 in the morning I know I want to dance. Home is fresh-baked cookies with melted chocolate chips. Always lots to eat, never hungry. Closes the fridge door. Rushing up and down the stairs racing to get to the school bus. “Brush your teeth!” mum yells because she loves me. Home is love and kindness. It teaches me to be good to other people. There are so many who have less than I do, so I want to help when I can. Home makes me the best I can be. I am smart, funny, and super annoying but it’s all good. Because I am home and home is the best.
