  The “Home” page on your blog cannot be “edited” as by default it is the page your posts will be displayed on. Please be sure you fully understand the differences between Pages and Posts. http://en.support.wordpress.com/post-vs-page/

  The front page of the blog by default will display your posts (not pages) in reverse chronological order, with the most recently published post on top. If you do not want all the posts to show on the front page, then you can create a static front page called for example “Welcome” for your site and a “Blog” page for posts.

  To do that create two pages > http://en.support.wordpress.com/pages/ After you do that you go to > Settings > Reading and make the designation change and click “save changes”.
  http://en.support.wordpress.com/pages/front-page/

  Front page displays
  __ Your latest posts

  A static page (select below)

  When I navigate to other pages on my site, and then want to go back to my home page, there isn’t a tab for it in my menu. How do I go back to my home page without having to retype my website name into my browser or using the back buttons? Is there a way to create a menu item that takes me back to my home/blog page?

  Thanks.

  The site title at the top of the page will always get you back to your main page. Just click on the site title.

  Alternately, you can create a custom menu and then include a home page link in that menu.
