My Home

I open my eyes and see the sunlight peeking from one of my curtains. I get up and put on my white slippers and walk over to my curtains. I see birds and squirrels running around in the green grass. The sunlight shines on the pavement. I see kids biking around the neighbourhood. I walk to my bathroom and turn on the bright lights and brush my teeth. I'm getting dressed in my favorite big sweater with my grey cozy pants. I walk downstairs to eat breakfast where my grandma and my dog are waiting for me. I sit on the cold chair and eat my grandma's yummy noodles. The noodles looked creamy and steam was coming out of them. I finished almost two bowls! I walked down the hall to my living room and I sat down on my warm squishy brown couch and put on my warm fluffy white blanket. I turned on the TV and started watching my favourite show a couple minutes later. My mom told me to go upstairs to do my homework. I walk down the hallway where I see plants, and my dog Milo. He has white curly fur and cute floppy ears. I walk up the long white stairs and down the hall to my mom and dad’s room. They have a bathroom, a closet, and a big brown desk they have the biggest room of. I walk to my brother's room. It is a very messy room. It is small with a desk against the wall with the closet and the bed beside each other. I walk past it and into my room. As I lay on my cozy warm bed, I think to myself this is what I call home. I can feel safe and comfortable here in my house.
