We should have been scared as we flew the hour to visit our grandparents in Midland. But we weren’t. Not at all. Holding Barbara’s hand as I walked down the tarmac, I felt brave. She’s always made me feel more courageous. And funny. No one laughs at my jokes like she does." Jenna and Barbara throwback / Instagram The post concluded, "On the flight, we got into an argument as sisters do. I was most likely more aggressive. After a while, the man seated on the aisle said, looking at my sister: 'Are you going to hit her or should I?' And that ended our fight. We were a team again. She—protecting me—put her little arm around my shoulder. No one was going to hurt her sister. And that’s my sister: all heart and all action. She loves fiercely and lives joyfully. And, I’m so lucky she’s mine! Happy Birthday, sissy!" What a sweet family! It is nice to see them bonded together and remembering the late George H.W. Bush and his wife Barbara.
