Question

Dear Lin Xin,

Thank you very much for your e-mail! I love fall, too. In Canada, we have a holiday called Thanksgiving Day in fall. Family members（成员） always celebrate it together. People often eat turkey and pumpkin pie on Thanksgiving Day. On that day, I usually go to my grandparents’ house. My uncles, aunts and their children are there, too. We all enjoy ourselves on that day.

In Canada, Thanksgiving Day is in early October. In the USA, they celebrate Thanksgiving Day in late November.

I remember your birthday is in September. Have a good time on your birthday, Lin Xin! On my birthday this year, I had a cake with thirteen candles. Everyone sang the song “Happy birthday”. Then I blew out the candles! Do you have a cake for your birthday?

Your friend,

Tom
