Home Isn't a Normal Building

Home isn’t a normal building. It's a place where magical memories are made. It isn’t just where my family and I live, it’s where wonderful adventures are created. The living room is my family’s room full of fun. It is full of fun games, jokes, laughter, the list goes on and on. The gym in the basement keeps me motivated and happy and excited when I reach a new goal. With my family encouraging me, my gym feels like more than just a gym. A magical gym. In the kitchen I smell magic from my dad’s cooking. Yummy sausages, tofu, asparagus, and rice, they all smell amazing. My bedroom, a cozy place where I have peace and imagination. When there are storms, my home feels like a bunker. Nice, safe, warm, and cozy. When it is cold or one of us has a gloomy day, we drink smoothies, laugh, play, and have fun. That is why my home isn’t a normal building. It is a magical place where I am loved and anything can happen. It is where I belong, and every day is a new page in my amazing journey.
