This holiday season, we will be celebrating twice over: once for Christmas and once for the fact my two oldest grandchildren, ages 8 and 11 are now fully vaccinated. I don't know which will be more exciting: opening a pair of socks come Christmas morning or hugging my grandkids knowing they have taken an important step in protecting their health and safety, as well as their fellow classmates, teachers, parents, me and my wife and the public at large, by helping to get this crazy pandemic under control.
