I wish all of you a very blessed and merry Christmas and hope that good health and good fortune come your way as we move into the new decade. Please try not to forget the real meaning of this holiday and get caught up in the consumerism mumbo-jumbo. It is a special day for family to get together and celebrate being together and the birth of Christ/Hanukkah/Kwanzaa/Whatever it may be. I love and miss you all and will keep you all in my thoughts and prayers as I spend my Christmas with my Spanish family. Give the gift that keeps on giving: LOVE.

¡Feliz Navidad y feliz nuevo año!
