No Place Like Home

There is no place like home. Home is like your feelings… It's like you never want to leave home or you just have to? My family wants to move to a better, safer, prettier, and calmer place, but I need some time to think about it. I am only 10 years old, and this is my first time moving houses. It's sad to see my old house empty, with no people, furniture or decorations. I have lived in this home my entire life since I was born. My brother is happy that we are moving out of our old house because he doesn't like mould or rusty old places, so he is excited. We are going to be moving away in three days, so there are boxes all around the house; in my room, my parents' room, my brother's room, the hallway, and the living room. It's hard to leave our old house because I have so many memories here. I wonder what's going to happen when we leave? Will it get even more mouldy? Or rusty? Or will it just break down? Or maybe it might just get replaced with a better house? Who knows? When my parents told me that we were moving out, I was shocked. I didn't even know what to say. I wanted to cry, but I felt like my parents would regret their decision and probably decide to stay. Not everything is about me, so I kept quiet and held back all the emotions I had, and it was awful. I loved my old house, and I will never forget all the memories and the fun I had there. It was all great, but it's time to let go of my old house and make some new memories in the new home.
