Seasons Greetings From Michelle Obama

With video.

Dear Friend,

This is the season where many of us get to leave the pressures of daily life behind and focus on what keeps us grounded -- being together with our families.

For our family, it's been so important for us to maintain our traditions no matter how hectic life gets. Just a few weeks ago, Barack left the frenzy of the campaign trail to come home to get the Christmas tree with the girls and me.

Today, I'd like to share a special holiday greeting from our family to yours:

This is also the season to remember that we're all in this together by helping those in need in our own communities and around the world.

You can find a way to help here:

Thank you for welcoming us into your lives and believing in what we are trying to do.

Wishing you a very Happy Holiday,

Michelle
