What home means to me!

What home means to me! I’m scared when I'm alone, that's why I like being home.It’s cold at night so I get a blanket. I hug a stuffed animal when I'm alone,it makes all my sadness and fear go away so I can go and play. Then when I'm tired I lay down and think of all the fun things to do when I wake up. I drift away and dream all night and when I wake up I turn on a light. I go to my closet when I wake up.I see all my favorite clothes and more to get ready,it's full of fun memories. “Time to get dressed “my mother said so I put on my clothes and went for an adventure. To see all the fun I can have. Then I go to the bathroom,do my make-up and see my great grandmother behind me.I turn around and nobody’s there,I feel her watching me from above,her gaze full of smiles and happiness. Then when I get in the shower I can feel the warmth. In my living room you can hear laughter and memories. Toys beside my baby brothers I used to own. Memories spread through the air.Joy and laughter everywhere. My baby brothers are getting bigger and bigger,they get older and taller,memories come and memories go,but these memories must stay. In my kitchen you will see,you will see a nice home made meal by my mom,she cooks great meals. You will see laughter and turkey dinner memories for christmas out of all. In a few years you will see my baby brothers chasing after me,they will be the cutest thing. When I'm in my kitchen I feel safe with all my family and meals . You might be wondering why I love my home so much. It's because it's cheerful and joyful with memories.I bet you have a home too! But not all homes are houses,it's what you feel comfortable with or in,can you imagine not having home? It would be so sad and cold,that's why you should love your home! Your home has fun stuff and family. Jocelyn Murphy- Grade 6- OVEC- Glace Bay Nova Scotia-
