Dr. Jill Biden, for her final Christmas at the White House, shares her love for traditions and the theme of 'A Season of Peace and Light' with a private tour of the holiday decorations.
For the third time, First Lady Jill Biden invited Action News in for a private tour of her annual holiday decorations. This Christmas marks the final one for the Bidens at the White House , and the first lady invited us there for a private tour of her annual holiday decorations. Dr. Jill Biden says being the first lady has been the 'honor of her life.' She hopes you feel that in the holiday display that she carefully curates, down to every detail.
For her fourth, and final Christmas at the White House, the First Lady chose the theme of 'A Season of Peace and Light.' 'I tried to think of the values we have as Americans,' Dr. Biden says, 'and certainly it's faith and family and community, and commitment to kindness.' They strung the lights, hung the ribbons, and put up the garland, wreaths, and ornaments. These are traditions Dr. Biden holds dear. 'I'm feeling good,' Dr. Biden says. 'I'm feeling that we're ready for the next journey.' 'I don't think so,' she laughs. 'I think that Joe and I will continue to do the things that we've always been interested in. Of course, you know, he loves foreign policy,' she says. 'He loves going around our country, meeting people and talking with them. I'm going to continue with what I've always done, education, military families and initiatives for women.' Dr. Biden is still teaching at the college level, and just handed in this semester's final grades last week. She has added her little teacher touches around the East Wing, like portraits of school children from around the country. 'As an English teacher, and someone who loves reading, I also wanted to make sure that children could go into the library and feel welcome,' she says. At the top of the display is her own children's book called 'Willow.' It's about her cat, Willow, which she named for her time spent growing up in Willow Grove, Pennsylvania
