A Home Can Be Everything

I think a home is where everyone supports each other where a family is made and memories are remembered. When I am not home I am at gymnastics. When I come back I feel happy and safe. Memories are big and small ,you can capture them in a photo.I feel happy and calm with my family because I can talk to my family and hug them. Last year I won a gold medal. I was really happy because everyone from my family supported me. When I go to gymnastics I have to eat in the car even though that happens I still like gymnastics. I am very happy that I have an opportunity to go to gymnastics and earn medals. It gets really tiring that I have to go to gymnastics five times a week but that won't stop me from doing it. I sometimes smell my mom baking sweets and yummy food and when they're done I like to try them. In my family I have my mom,dad,sister,me and my cats. If I'm feeling sad or hurt I can talk to my mom and she will hug me. If I'm home we eat at the dining table. We like to talk about lots of different things. We have a big house with three floors. The middle floor is used for everything, the top floor for sleeping and in the basement there are people who live there. We play with the kids that live there. When we have movie nights we sit on the couch and eat snacks beside the fireplace.we enjoy the warmth of the fireplace because it's cozy and calm. We sometimes play bingo. We play it on the floor beside the fireplace. When someone comes over we like to play games that we enjoy or when there is a party we play fun activities. I know a little part of carol of the bells on the piano so I sometimes play it. My family likes to go on walks,in the winter we like to go sledding down our little hill which leads to our backyard. When we come home we undress our snow gear and hang it on the dining room chairs. If I have nothing to do I like to go to my room and sit at my desk and draw in my sketchbook.When my mom has time she takes me and my sister to the pool when we come back we hang our swimsuits and wet towels on the staircase rail. The staircase leads to the upper and bottom floor. Upstairs is my room I have a big bunk bed and my desk. I like to be in there because my things are in there and my bed is comfortable. If I am downstairs I usually smell the fresh smell of the air fresheners. I know that not everybody has a home or at least a roof on there head so I want to make everybody have a safe,cozy and comfortable home.
