Bush Twin's Letter to Obama Girls

What's it like to "Play House in the White House?"

There have been so many examples of the welcoming good grace, best wishes and pure classiness that President and First Lady Laura Bush extended at every opportunity to the incoming Obama family. So, it should surprise no one that that same good wishes were also communicated by the Bush daughters Barbara and Jenna.

President Bush left incoming President Obama a letter on the Oval Office desk entitled "from #43 to #44" and the Bush twins left a letter for Obama's two young girls which the Wall Street Journal reprints under the headline: Playing House in the White House.

In a rare moment of showing the Bush family in a good light, NBC's Today Show arranged for the Bush girls to read the letter along with an accompanying slide show of photos showing what growing up in the White House was like for them:

One last Bush Thank-a-thon pictorial encore for the Bush twins:

What a contrast this First Family is to the one which immediately proceeded it into office. No scandal. no grand juries. Just class.
