     As she walked into her new home, Mary took a deep breath. She was so happy to have found the house of her drama. She liked how nice the hardwood floors were and how big kitchen was. She thought she would spend most of her time in that room, cooking and having people over.

     As she walked through the house, she thought about how she would decorate each room. She couldn't wait to add her own touches and make the room her own. She pictured herself reading in the cozy window seat and unwinding in the big, fancy tub.

     Mary knew it would be hard to move into a new house, but she was up for the challenge. She had worked hard to get to this place, and she was excited to make it her home. She promised herself that she would take her time and enjoy every moment of this new part of her life.
