While working at the Ronald Reagan Library
Museum Shop, we received some new additions to our
already amazing Jacqueline Bouvier Kennedy jewelry
collection. This berry broach is stunning, and I just
love it....so I had sent a text message to Jerome who was
also working, asking if this could be my Mother's Day gift
from him and the kids. Well I knew he would say "Yes". So I
purchased it, with the comment from him of "Wonderful.
You took a lot of pressure off of me. "
Inside the box is a little card signed by
Jacqueline Kennedy with a precious message on the
other side. I did not read this card until I got
home with the gift, and it brought tears to my
eyes as I read it.....
Jackie's Wisdom- Children:
"Raising children is the best thing
I have ever done. Being a Mother is what
I think has made me the person I am."
"Campaigning with Jack has taken
me away from home. If Jack proved to be
the greatest president of the century and his
children turned out badly, it would be a tragedy.
"Jack is so affectionate with his daughter.
She has made him so much happier. A man without
a child is incomplete."
"People have many theories about rearing
children. I believe simply in love, security, and
discipline."
"The things you do with your children,
you never forget."
Unknown at the time....This is the Perfect
Mother's Day Gift.
Have A Blessed Mother's Day !

* I am working this Sunday....and will be wearing this on my lapel,
a smile on my face and love for my husband and
children in my heart.
