WASHINGTON–First Lady Melania Trump joined 20 young patients and their families at the National Children’s Hospital on Dec. 5 to kick off the holiday season with a Christmas party.
“I wish you all a very Merry Christmas and Happy New Year,” Trump told the crowd. “I wish you a lot of strength and love. My husband, the president, is sending love and best wishes as well.”
The first lady was escorted by two young patients, 5-year-old Faith Hinkle and 11-year-old Riley Whitney.
She read the children a book titled “How Does Santa Go Down the Chimney?” written by Mac Barnett.
Santa and Mrs. Claus were in attendance, sporting luxurious red robes, while acting out scenes from the book….
