Home

Home is more than just walls and a roof: it can also be a place you go on vacation, where you go to work, where you go to school, and where you go to play. There are people or animals in houses that you love and that also love you. They'll help you feel like you belong and will always be there for you. It may also involve spending time alone, relaxing next to gorgeous emerald trees, or reading a book in a field full of daisies. Even on the snowiest days, a home should seem cozy and inviting. It's like spending a cold night with your family and friends around a campfire, eating s'mores and gazing up at a sky full of stars. It's also like enjoying your favorite movies in your comfy bed while curled up with your cat in a heated, soft blanket. You can learn new things at home. You can learn how to play card games or how to bake the ideal fudge brownies. But when you learn these things, it's from your loved ones who help you become a better person when you learn them. Homes are full of happy memories. These memories are full of "adventures," like a storybook. It can be about your first time walking, your first birthday, or your first day of school. These memories may be framed on a shelf or may be hidden in a big box up in the attic. But these memories are also in your heart and home, that’s what makes your home special and why you love it so much.
