The Meaning of Home

Home to me is a place full of love. My home is full of love and joy because every week we play a board game and go on walks with each other. My mom makes me feel loved because when I get home from school, she asks how my day was and what I did. My dad makes me feel loved when he helps me practice for my sports like soccer, volleyball, track and field, and cross country. I love it when my family takes me out to buy me stuff. I love when we will go to Niagara Falls to go see my family. We stay there for a week or 2, it makes me happy. When I’m down there me and my family usually go to the arcade and near Halloween, I go to Haunted houses whoever doesn’t chicken out gets 20$ or a gift. When I’m on my way back from Niagara Falls, we sometimes will go to Canadas wonderland it makes me happy and I’m grateful that my parents will do that for me. My parents make me feel safe because they lock our doors at night or before we go out of the house. I also feel safe because we have cameras just in case someone brakes in. My dog makes me feel safe because whenever she hears the door open, she will bark and will protect me and my family. That’s what the meaning of home means to me.
