My House
Smells like vanilla scent
Makes me as happy as my car
Tastes like white paint from an art set
Across from my house
I can see dirt, bushes, and jackrabbits
I hear a tractor and men making a building
You can feel the wall, dirt, bars

§ When we have a cough we drink olive oil with salt. When we have a sore throat we gargle with salt water. When we have a cut we wash it with soap and water.
§ When we get sick my mom has learned to use different types of herbs. When our stomach hurts she gives us a tea made of a flower called chamomile. It makes our stomach feel good. When we get bruises and bumps my mom puts a homeopathic medicine called arnica on us. It is also a flower.
