The Mid-Autumn Festival

     The Mid-Autumn Festival is a very vital festival for Chinese. It falls on the 15th day of August. On that day's evening, there will be a big family dinner. People who work far away from their homelands will come back for the union. After dinner, people will sit together and see the moon.  What's more, people will light some red and round  lanterns which represent reunion. Children usually play with their own toy lanterns happily. 
    Mid-Autumn Festival can make people who work far away from homelands miss home. Because  Mis-Autumn Festival is usually on the half of a year, it is a good chance for people to go back to home and see family. However, this year, I don't go back to my home. I guess my parents are eating moon cakes  and missing me. It is sad that I can't spend the festival with them. So I call my parents and grandmother. The Mid-Autumn Festival is not only a festival about round moon, but also a day to remind people to love family.
