The Meaning of Home

When I think of home many words come to mind, but if I could only choose three words they would be cozy, comforting, and welcoming. My first word is Cozy. I think of the word cozy because when I think of home I get this warm and fuzzy feeling which makes me really happy inside. I really love my home and sometimes on the road I look at other people's houses and I just don't get the same feeling as I do when I'm looking at my own house. It's really nice when I come home from a cold winter day and I just walk into a heated home and snuggle up in a blanket to have a nice hot chocolate. The second word is comforting. I chose comforting because whenever I do something my family will always support me whether I did something good or bad. For example, during the volleyball season the team was not as strong so after every game I would come home with a frown but my mom would make it all better by giving me a big hug and making my favourite food. For my third word I chose welcoming. The reason I chose welcoming was because my parents are the most welcoming people on the planet. They are so supportive I could come home with a 1/10 for my math test and they would still give me a hug and tell me everything is alright. My parents are super nice to my friends too! They would get so many snacks and make my friends feel right at home. To conclude, I have the best home in the world and I would not do anything in the world to change it.
