Dear Josh and Esther,
I do not take credit for the picture or poem on this card since these are products of my new children.  They do, however, express my feelings about Christmas and I take this opportunity to send you my warmest wishes and greetings, I hope that we shall get to see you people some time soon (S.A.B. meetings?)  I would like you to get to know my new family, and, of course, if you come to San Francisco, to show off my beloved city.
Yours as ever,
Mike
I hope that the tree in your house gives the glow that it does in mine,
And if it does, I know you'll have a very happy time.
Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year
