A Better Home

A Better Home by Lillian My home contains special things that are very important to me and I’m so grateful to have safety,a family and great memories in my house. Safety is one of the important things I have. I feel safe in my house, my doors and windows are really hard so no one can not probably break in. My parents will protect me from all the dangerous objects high away like plates and they are quite dangerous because they can break and cut me really badly or the sharp objects. My parents will also hide the dangerous things from me. Being safe is important for everyone, not just me! Families come in all shapes and sizes. I love my family and they love me back. I have four and almost five family members living with me. They are me,my mother, my uncle and my aunt and soon I will have a baby in my house. My aunt makes these delicious traditional Vêitnamse foods that are so good! She made some homemade jello that smelled like coffee but tasted so good! it had half milk on top and coffee on the bottom but I did not try the coffee part because I don’t like coffee. Some people have both of their parents living with each other but my father does not live with me but I get to see him once a week on the weekend and I also don’t have siblings.Family is what I love most! Everyone has different memories of them at their home. I remember when I was a toddler playing with five dollar bills, It was funny looking back at the old memories. There are also my best memories like playing with my mom using throw stuffies, giggling and laughing or I made a great cardboard squishy dispenser and played with my cousin or on my birthday I got the best sticker which was my favourite game character. There are also lucky memories about playing a memory game and winning.I have a million hearts for my home! Everyone has some good memories and bad memories but at least we have memories of our childhood! It would be lovely to talk more about my home! My family, my memories and my safety are very special and I’m grateful to have them and I believe everyone should have them!
