The Meaning of Home

To me, the meaning of home is a place that has all my memories. For example, the time I jumped off my roof when I was five onto my bouncy castle. Or the time when I stacked two trampolines on each other. When I was four we had a big rock in the middle of our backyard and everytime I went outside, I would climb up the rock and dance. Then I would fall off and laugh so hard I would almost pee myself. We still have the rock but we took it out and put it beside our barn. I want my own room so I have my own space and take a break from my brother but I still love him. Years ago before I was born, my loving dad built a ten foot house that we call our playhouse. It’s basically a mini home. My dad also built a pool when I was two. I barely remember it being built in our backyard. I love the nights we have a bonfire, blast music and play tag in the dark. Sometimes I trip because there are potholes and sometimes I roll my ankle. That is the meaning of home to ME.
