My Great Home

"Ben, come help me bake something!" is sometimes what I hear. My home is a wonderful place, but the things that are most important to me are my kitchen, my room, and my family. To me this is the meaning of home. While I'm in the kitchen I feel like baking anything. Sometimes I can get lost in thoughts about it. Once, I got really lost in my thoughts that I forgot why I went into the fridge and stood there for a moment. When I remembered I grabbed what I needed. I love my kitchen so much, this is one of the reasons my home feels like home. Speaking of home, my room is a home for my mind. Every day I go up to my room to lie down and rest, play with my stuffies, or sit and read a book. Sometimes after a big day, I go to my room to get under my blanket. So at the end of every day I always return to this haven I call my room. I think that my family and I spend a lot of time together. I love my family and always will, we have been through so much together. I can guarantee anybody who will look at my sister would be in awe. If you tasted my dad’s sourdough you would instantly want more. Have you ever needed help with math? I think that my mom could solve it. I think I am pretty lucky to have such an amazing family. I think you have an idea of how important these things are. When you go home, I want you to find things you love, and why they make your home special to you. I love my home and hope you do too.
