My Home

It’s not home if I don’t have anyone to love. I love my mom, my dad, my dogs, my sister, and my brothers, and I don’t feel happy if my dad or mom or siblings aren’t around. When my dad or mom are not their, I don't feel happy because I have special memories with each person. I may not know how to hike or swim or stuff like that but I do know how to love my parents forever. A special moment with my parents is when they were still together at Christmas. It was fun. Everyone was having fun. Fun is all you need. I don't need a house to be happy as long as my family is there. Home means family and family means being loved and cared for. With my family, I can be myself and I feel safe there. Home is not a place, it's the people who are in it who make it special. There are bad things and good things about homes. A bad thing is that my parents are divorced and a good thing is that I know I am loved and cared for. And that is the most important thing.
