Happy holidays!

I'm just wrapping up some last minute work here in Little Rock before Gert and I catch a flight to Los Angeles. But before heading out, we wanted to take a moment to send you our best holiday wishes.
Gert and I are really looking forward to spending a few days in Los Angeles with our son, Wes, our daughter-in-law, Astrid, and our two grandsons, Wes and Dashiell, to celebrate Christmas. It's a very special time of the year for our family, as it is for millions of Americans.
I hope that in the midst of this very busy time of year, with everything we all have going on in our personal and professional lives - as well as the many challenges facing our nation - that you are able to take some time to appreciate the joy and peace of this special holiday season.
Also, we hope you'll take a few minutes just to be thankful, to all those and for everything we have to be grateful for. Everyone thinks of our troops, and I hope you won't forget them. But some of our military family are celebrating their third Christmas at home alone. Others are with loved ones, but recovering from horrible injuries. They need your prayers too.
Gert and I wish you and your family a very happy, safe, and peaceful holiday!
