Merry Xmas & it was. Gift opening, a walk on the S. Lawn with Lucky & then cast of last nights party here at the W.H. for an early evening dinner. A beautiful book on Iran from the Shahbanu [Farah Pahlavi, Empress of Iran] and a poignant letter. She can only spend about 3 mo’s. a year here in the U.S. where her children are going to school because of a law or legis. of some kind. I’m going to try to get her a diplomatic passport. That would at least up it to 6 months.
