My family has always had family dinners, as far as I can remember. When I was a little boy, my mother began to ask us to attend family dinners at least once a week. Every Sunday, my mother would buy a lot of food and bring it to my grandma's house. We would wait for more family members to come before eating together at the table, my grandma's dinner table. In the past, I felt that was a silly (愚蠢的) tradition.
However, I find it's fantastic to get together as a family now. For me, dinner is not just a meal, but a good chance to talk and play with family members. We can talk about everything after a long week of school and work. Every time I sit at the dinner table, my grandma's dinner table, I look around and find so many people who truly love me. It makes me feel so happy.
Finally, I understand the true meaning of this tradition. It's not about the dinners or activities. It's about family members, a group of people who care about each other.
All the memories (记忆) around my grandma's dinner table will last forever. Now, I'm always expecting Sunday to arrive.
