Why My Home is Special to Me

Why am Grateful for my Home I am grateful for my home because, the people there ,my animals ,my favourite room , my yard , My community. I am grateful for the people in my home. I live with my mother, father and two sisters named Rana and Heidi. My dog lives with us too in the house. I'm grateful for the animals at my house. I have one small dog. She lives inside the house and her name is Winnie like Winnie the Pooh that's why we named her Winnie . I have a big dog. He is an Irish Wolfhound and he lives outside in our shop and his name is Waylon. We named him Waylon because There was a country song that we liked to listen to that said,“ Igot a dog named Waylon”.I have four cats One of them is at the Vets right now because it licked oil that has been dripping from my dad's tractor the other two which are also kittens gladly haven't licked up any oil yet.and we have an older cat and she has also not licked up any oil. The one cat that's in the vets is Smokey. The two young cats are named fart head number one and fart head number two.i have more pets but it will be too much to type. My favorite room in my house is my mom's room. She always keeps it nice and cold there especially in the summer and she has a little walk-in closet with her and my dad put some of their clothes. She also has a bathroom in her room and it all just got redone recently like last summer. In my yard I have a wooden swing set and a trampoline in my front yard and in my backyard I have another swing set but it is meant for little kids. In my backyard we also have my mom's Greenhouse and big Garden. In the backyard area we also have our chicken coop.By the chicken coop we also have a big metal fence where are bulls usually get kept in the summer and in the bull area we have another fence where our heifers are usually kept. We have a lot in our yard but I'm not going to name it all but surrounding us and our house is a bunch of trees. There's a bush behind our house and to the side of our house and we have a pond in our front yard. my community is banana belt we have a hall that a lot of stuff has been held at my grandma and grandpa's 50 if anniversary was held there and there was there is a nice big yard behind the hall and also a swing set is in the yard. In my community there is a lot of people that have cattle and a lot of my family live in my community and there is a little creek that runs through banana belts that when it is in summer we family and our family friends will come and hang out at the creek and we'll swim because it is like a 10-minute drive from our house and there is Little Fishies in the creek that eat’s the dead skin off your feet. That's why I am grateful for my home !
