　　During the Spring Festival, my father came back home. He looked thin and tired. He gave my mother two thousand yuan, and told her that he would work even harder, earn more money, and then he could take us to the city He stayed at home for only ten days.We are living a poor life now. But what I want most is not money, but my father. I miss him very much!

　　我是一个十岁的女孩，我住在离太原很远的一个小山村。和我共同生活的唯一的人是我妈妈，因为我爸爸离家已经八年了，他在城里干活。

　　春节期间爸爸回家了。他看起来瘦瘦的，很疲倦。他把2，000元交给妈妈，并告诉她说他要拼命地干活，多赚点钱，然后把我们接到城里去。他在家只呆了十天。

　　我们的日子很苦，可是我最需要的不是钱，是爸爸!我很想念他!
