The best place in the world is home

Home is where you can feel how your family loves you and how you love them. At home you feel relaxed, and you think yes, I am at home. Home is where you can smell your mom`s cooking. The best dinner is potatoes, and you are so excited to smell your favourited food. Home is where you can hear your father watch TV you see he is sleeping but when you turn off the tv, he immediately wakes up! Home is where you can see me playing with my brother’s gorilla and monkey. The rule of this game is my brother is the gorilla and monkey, and I am a monkey, and he needs to tickle me, and I need to not laugh and not to fall on couch. When hear my mom with my dad opening the door we just sit and pretend like nothing is happening my mom asks, what we were doing, and we just say oh nothing mom say okey and we say phew. Something else I love at home is when my mom gives me a chocolate bar. I run to my room then. I take a ruler and cut into equal pieces. When we are done eating my brother picks me up and spins me around. I feel like I am flying. Home is where you can taste cookies that you make with dad. They are the best cookies in the world, and you eat with your family. I also have a lot of stories that can be fun, excited, angry, and sad. My Favorito story is with my cat named Pyshok. One time when I was four, I try to teach Pyshok how to read I pointed at book and say this is word hi say Pyshok but he says meow. I also like this story I have fish and one time she looks on figure of snowman and I put up and she open her mouth she was acting like a human. When I look at her it was so funny and cute. Just for writing this I can help families have a home where they can feel loved. House can be big and fancy but home get bigger and fancier with love.
