Meaning of Home

When I’m at home, I feel safe about who I’m with I also love because my family is so caring and nice to me all the time. I also feel healthy because my mom and dad make us have a daily routine with brushing our teeth and going to bed at a certain time. Also, I feel like I can ask them about anything in the world and they will try their best to help me with it. I’m also excited to come home after school or activities like basketball and I know when I get home, they will be right there ready to see me. When I’m at home, I smell the candles burning with a fresh scent of vanilla bean noel. I taste the delicious food on my plate that I’ve been over the moon for. Right when I get home, I see my mom right on the ball making an awesome meal that I can’t wait to eat. And I see my brother pretend to throw a toy for my dog, but he’s just pulling her leg. I hear my dad start to play his record player as loud as he possibly can like he wants my mom to yell at him. I feel my dog squeeze right between me and my dad because she loves being beside us. Home wouldn’t be home without my family. By Holly
