The Meaning of Home

My house is special because I was raised there. I have lived here for 10 years since I was born. I know my home is where my family is. My dad says A house has a roof and four walls but a home is where the heart is. My house is where my favorite things are. I remember when my basement was getting renovated and now my The basement is so pretty. Now I can read books , I can watch TV, and I can play the piano in the basement. Sometimes at my house I play with my best friend. Home is where I do the dishwasher and do lots of chores, because my mom wants to have a clean house. I like my house clean too.This is where I study for math tests Because it's quiet and space to do it. My bedroom is where all my stuffies and Lego are. My home is where I smell good food on the table. There's always food in the kitchen and snacks to eat. My house is where I go to sleep and where I wake up. I feel safe and happy when I am in my house. I remember when I was in the Dominican Republic and I miss my house but Dominican was fun. My house is where I go to after school. Every time I get off my bus at the end of the day I go to my house. Home is where I watch TV and be myself and relax. I have the comfiest bed and pillow and I love sleeping in my bed. My house is warm and comfy In the winter and cool in the summer. The best part of my house is that I can spend time with my family.
