Full stop and the word " it "
I often get confused when I see a sentence beginning with the word " it ". Can someone please explain the word " it's " rules regarding full stops and commas. For some reason it's just it, the word " it ", that I don't process with punctuation.
For example - She loves that house. It's so bright.
OR - She loves that house, it's so bright.
Which one example is correct and why?
