“We have watched you grow from girls to impressive young women with grace and ease.”
Jenna Bush Hager on Friday shared some rare photos on Today showing the first time Sasha and Malia Obama visited the White House back in 2008.
The photos came a day after Hager and her twin sister, Barbara Bush, penned a letter to the Obama girls recounting that first visit and sharing advice for their life outside White House Walls.

“The four of us wandered the majestic halls of the house you had no choice but to move in to,” they wrote.
“When you slid down the banister of the solarium, just as we had done as 8-year-olds and again as 20-year-olds chasing our youth, your joy and laughter were contagious.”
“We have watched you grow from girls to impressive young women with grace and ease,” they said, recounting the daughters’ experiences from standing in Nelson Mandela’s prison cell, to attending state dinners, to laughing at their dad’s jokes at the annual turkey pardon.
“And through it all you had each other,” they said. “Just like we did.”

“But you have so much to look forward to,” they said. “You will be writing the story of your lives, beyond the shadow of your famous parents, yet you will always carry with you the experiences of the past eight years.”
