Two Homes

I have two homes: my dad’s and my mom’s. They’re not that different, but they’re my homes. At my dad’s, there is love, laughter, kindness, and the smell of my dad’s farts. I have two siblings at my dad’s, Mason and Brynley, and my parents, my dad and my stepmom. I also have two cats and two dogs. I have lots of memories but my favourite memory is with my brother and my sister. We put a mattress on the stairs and we all slid down. My home is filled with long viny plants and a large messy kitchen. At my mom’s, there is love, happiness, and lots of emotions. I love my mom’s home. I only have one sibling, and my fur sister, Gemma. She is a dog. I have my mom, my stepdad Jamie, and my brother’s name is Mason. One of my best memories was one time we had a movie night at home. At a funny part of the movie, we all laughed so loud! It was hilarious. A home isn’t just walls. It is filled with love, laughter, kindness, and much more.
