Jenna Bush Hager Found A Sweet Christmas Present From Grandmother Barbara Bush After Her Death

Jenna Bush Hager has experienced a lot of changes in her family over the past few years. While she welcomed her baby son Hal three months ago, she also lost her grandfather and both grandmothers last year.

Apparently, one of Jennas grandmothers, former first lady Barbara Bush, was thinking about her future great-grandchildren, because the Today co-host just discovered that Barbara created "reserves" of embroidered stockings for them.

I found out I was pregnant the week after my grandfather died, and I lost my three living grandparents in one year, Jenna told People in a new interview. Jennas grandfather, former president George H.W. Bush died in November 2018, just six months after his wife, Barbara, and Jennas maternal grandmother, Jenna Welch, died in May.

Jenna pointed out that baby Hal is the first baby that wont get to meet these people that were such an important part of my life.

But, I will say, and this is such a beautiful thingmy grandmother, my dads mom, needlepointed a lot of stockings, reserves, for great-grandchildren that would be after she died, the Sisters First author continued.

Jenna said she knew Barbara had been making stockings but she didnt know if there was enough for her new baby.

She tirelessly worked, Jenna said. And so my aunt just emailed me on Friday and said, What address should I send Hals stocking to?

Jenna called the stocking a beautiful blessing and a beautiful thing that her late grandmother did. [Hal] will never met her, but theyre so ingrained, I mean, literally in this case, in the fabric of our familythat hell have a stocking that his great-grandmother sewed.

Jenna said she also hopes her baby will get to know her grandparents in other ways. I know that through my grandparents' letters and their stories and the way that they raised us, hell get to know them, she said.
