What Home Means to Me

In my home I feel safe, home is a sanctuary to imagine, to read, to express your creativity. In my room I have probably over one hundred books and I've read all of them. My favorite book series is Harry Potter and my favorite book is 'Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets'. I know how to say "pneumonoultramicroscopicsilicovolcanoconiosis,hippomonstrosesquippedaliophobia." I’ve lived in my house my entire life, I live in the Highlands surrounded by forest on all sides. In the summer, my room was a storage room on my deck, but I asked my mom if it could be my room and she said "yes" so it's my room now. I used to live in a room with my sister, but now she has her own room like me. I have a trampoline in my backyard. My backyard is really big so I can go outside and play whenever I want. I have a cat named Punkin. He is turning eighteen in April. At home, I like playing video games. My favorites are 'The Legend of Zelda, Breath of the Wild,' 'The Legend of Zelda Tears of the Kingdom,' and 'Mario Kart Eight Deluxe.' I've watched all the Harry Potter movies, I loved them and they are my favorite. My favorite holiday is Halloween. I feel safe in my home. I'm grateful to have a roof over my head. I love my family and my home.
