This is what home means to me

My home means a lot to me because of memories. Home also makes me think of all the special moments I've had. Having a home is important because it’s where I’ve spent most of my life. All of the memories I've had mean a lot because without my memories, it’s as though there would be no childhood. I have had lots of memories in my house like getting my first book, having my first birthday party, my first time leaving home, and many more. When something special happens to me, it’s usually at my home! Like when I had all of my birthdays, and all of my Christmases at my house. I only have one home and that's the home I live in right now. My house is really special to me because there are lots of irreplaceable things like family photos, drawings, and getting my four pets! I moved into my home a long time ago. I don't even remember what my old house looked like, all I know is that I lived there briefly. I moved into my current home when I was just a baby, and my home has been through a lot like when my basement flooded or when my dad flew a drone into one of the walls! But I like my home and I like it more and more every day. Homes are really important to everyone. That's why we should start helping people build them whenever we can.
