The Heart of Home

Home sweet home, what does that mean to everybody? Some think a house is a place to sleep and eat, a roof over our heads, but it is so much more. Home is where I feel safe and protected, where I spend time with my family and friends, and where memories are made. Home is where I feel safe and protected. It protects me from the bad weather outside and keeps people I don’t know out. It is the safest place for me to be during Covid-19, and I am very grateful to have a house during these times. My house is the best place, which makes me feel safe and protected inside my home since the doors are always locked, and we have security cameras around the house. My house is where I spend time with my family and friends. I spend tons of time with my family and friends in the summer in my backyard and is big and wide. I have a swimming pool, hot tub, trampoline, and swing set to entertain the guests that we have over. In summer I go in the pool to cool off and when its cold I would go in the hot tub. I use the trampoline in summer to exercise and do cool tricks! I use toys and electronics to play with my family and friends. I get beautiful memories at my home. My home is where I feel big emotions like sadness, happiness, and angry. I know that being happy is the key to everything. Happiness comes from many different places but, happiness is known to be seen at home the most. It is where we laugh, play, and learn. It is a house where I share my feelings and emotions with my family and friends and where I can be myself. When I do something or sleep, I feel like nothing will go wrong. I make good and bad memories with my family. My whole family gives me space, and we have lots of happy memories together. In conclusion, my house is super cozy and spacious. It is where I feel the safest, where I spend time with my family and friends, and where so many memories are made. I love my house and care for it very much. There is no other place I would rather be than at home.
