The Meaning of Home

The meaning of home to me means many different things. My home is made up of my Mom, Dad, my cats Max, Callie and me. My home is full of love from my family and my pets. My home is safe, has everything I need and is very comfortable. My home gives me shelter from the rain, cold, and the heat of the summer. My home also protects me from many things such as bugs, bad weather and other hazards. Without my home, I would not feel protected or safe. My home is where I eat food. My mom buys me my favorite foods to eat, which are Kraft Dinner and spaghetti. My home is where I sleep in a comfy bed. I have a room to myself and lots of space to move around. I also have a playroom just for me. There is so much stuff in there that I can not count it. I will never get bored or run out of things to do. My home is where I have many memories of playing video games with my family. Our favorite game is Mario Kart. The characters that we choose to play with are, Toad for my mom, Mario for my dad and Toadette for me. We love to watch movies together, the latest one was, ‘Sing 2.’ I also have lots of memories at my cottages, which I think of as my home too. My memories at my cottages include swimming at the beach and going for long walks. My home is comfortable because it allows me to relax. There are comfy chairs to sit on, soft beds to lay on with lots of blankets and pillows, and a table to eat at with my family. My home is so comfortable that sometimes I just lay on the floor to watch TV. My home consists of many different things that are just for me, like my ipad, nintendo, phone and my books. All of these things I keep safely in my room. Because it is just me, I don’t always have to share my special things. My home has many different things that make me happy. Home is the most important thing to me and I’m so lucky to have a safe, comfortable home where I can be me!
