Home, The Safest Place

My home is just a place that you feel loved by the people around you, and you hear the laughter and chatter of my family. Like when my family gathers at the table to eat dinner in peace, you feel warm by your family and you're surrounded by love and laughter. My home is just a place that you celebrate Christmas at the end of the year. You feel cozy and happy when you first wake up on Christmas morning. You open up your presents and celebrate Christmas as a family. We also drink hot chocolate next to the warm cozy fire, telling stories and having fun with joy. My home is just a place that you feel safe where you’re comforted and protected by your parents. You can act in any way at home and nobody will hurt you. That makes me feel safe from anything dangerous. I don't worry about many things when I feel safe. Your parents do many things for you. Like when I'm worried, I can go home and my parents will make me feel better, by talking to me about why I'm sad. That makes me feel safe. My home is just a place that has a warm and cozy bed with furniture and chairs to sit on. With a fridge with food, my parents make sure I have what I need to stay healthy. Parents are an important part of your family especially when you're feeling blue or you need someone to cheer you up.
