The Meaning of Home

I would like to share what the meaning of home means to me. You are going to hear what is the most important to me about my home and what it kind of looks like. The three main ideas I’m going to talk about are family, friends, sleeping in, and playing video games. My family and friends mean the most to me and what I like to do most is play video games. I love my home. In my home lives, my dad and his name is Jon. My mom and her name is Kelly, my sister Riley and my dog Winnie. Our house has three bedrooms, four bathrooms, an upstairs and downstairs, my mom even has a hair salon in our house. We have an apartment in our backyard that my nanny lives in and her name is Bonny. In our house, we have a wood stove that makes our house cozy and warm in the winter. What I love most about my home is that we live beside our best friends, the Beesley’s. The Beesley’s are Justin, Paige, Simon, and Jesse. A lot of weekends we have supper together and play games. They are like our family. The parents play a game called Ticket to Ride and the kids do other things. Like video games, watching a movie, or playing cards. It’s a lot of fun. We love having them at our home. Some of the reasons I love my home is that I can get up when I want or stay in my bed and stay in my pjs all day. This is how I spend my weekends but on school days I can’t do this. I like to play with my dog and also watch YouTube and play video games. Even my friends like to come here and hang out, they say they like my house the most. This is why I love my home, it’s cozy and inviting and I love being with my family. My favourite things to do are playing video games and spending time with family and friends. I picked these three things because they are what makes me happy.
