Why Does Home Matter to Me?

The home that I live in has my family's smell. When I go to a friend’s house, the smell of it is not normal to me but it's normal to them. It is their house not mine. When I came to Canada, I did not know what snow was. We found a home to live in, forever maybe. Home is feeling loved, being sweet to others, and being happy together. The things that I like to do is to put music on and play games. My dad's bed is almost full of stuffies! Some people like sheep, dogs, or kitties as their favourite stuffies but my favourite stuffie is a bear. Her name is Sofi, she is the most important bear and she is soft. Why is she very important? She was with me everywhere since I was born. Her first name was little bear but now her name is Sofi. When I was little, I loved to play games with my older sister. We loved to have fun together but now those days are over! Now sometimes I ask her to play with me, but she says no but sometimes she says yes. When I was very little, I never got in trouble, but now I get in trouble by my sister she says that I did that and sometimes I did not do it but sometimes I did though. I must do what she says even if I don’t like to. Sometimes she says that I must take out her dinner plate for chips and that is a good deal for me. One thing that I like to do is to play with friends that are nice. We always have fun and act silly too. Some people don’t have homes like you do. We all have a different home like mine. My home is different from yours.
