Barbara looks like her mom. Jenna looks like her dad.
Exactly 💯
Yes, so crazy that they’re twins.
@@joankgillette Hi.... hello 👋 how are you doing today?
Yes, they do! Jenna has her mother's facial structure, and he father's coloring.
*her
I love the fact that she said, she's already a princess.
The American spirit!
Love it!
@@21stcenturyshowgirl
The American SPIRIT is WE the PPL have the RIGHT to call ourselves princesses, kings, queens, princes etc.
The term PRINCESS is NOT exclusively to the U.K.
My husband IS the KING of our castle.
I'm the QUEEN of our castle.
The Brits 'SEEMS' they don't have That RIGHT.
SORRY!
Sorry to probably burst your bubble
You’ve got to be kidding me.
Dumbest thing I’ve heard today.
I don't think she could have said it any better either as in Barbara Bush that is...
And your Dad is a War criminal to boot. Life sure is tough when you grow up with a 6 figure trust fund.
They have such a great sibling relationship, it’s lovely to watch.
OMG, Barbara sounds exactly like her Mom!
Yes. I thought same
Yes!!! Soooo precise.
Yep.
Louder though
I never had a sister but, I had a best friend that we called each other sisters. I lost her a few years ago and miss her every day
Me too.
My next door neighbor & best friend from age 4 - 60 yrs. Her kids call me aunt.
It's such a great loss.
I understand. 💛
Jenna's personality is more like her father. Barbara's personality is more like her mother. They are twin, but they don't look the same. Which is good. The best part is they love each other.
Fraternal twins are just siblings. Totally different from IDENTICAL twins
@@janeoleary8454 Usually fraternal twins, esp. if they're the same gender, look more alike than the Bush girls. I'm also a twin, and even my Mom had difficulty knowing who was who.
@@piustwelfth I grew up with female fraternal twins. They barely looked like sisters
@@piustwelfth you're right. My great uncles who are fraternal twins, used to look identical. Only when I got older could I tell them apart. A set of fraternal twins I went to school with looked almost identical aside from them having different heights. My cousins, who are fraternal twins however, look nearly completely different.
@@janeoleary8454 I think that's the exception rather than the norm.
It's great that each of the girls looks like their parent. Barb looks like her mom, and Jenna is her Daddy's girl!
That was so sweet that they almost cried when their grandmother came up. I was so close to my grandmother! I was a flight attendant and had their Ganny on board and she was always such a lovely lady!
Hello 👋 how are you doing today?
Yeah she was an OG New Yorker, that Barbara Bush.
The acknowledgement of her willingness to accept her choices without need to justify them... love it.
We're never as strong, as we are until we have to be. Never Do as much, unless the need we see. Only give our best, when we fail at mediocrity. We Love rather than hate when we admit we're one humanity. We always give more, when compassion moves our heart with unbridled generosity. We Become more of our potential when we are made to see, that clearly our minds can believe in unfathomable possibilities, while seizing every opportunity, here in lies one's destiny. More than our scars, higher than our stars, for in our flaws are what defines our features, they're uniquely ours, as human creatures.
We can run faster than on our slowest day. Reason better, and thinking it through all the way, regardless which direction our emotions may sway. We can find our voice when speechless, our strong words with meekness and our Courage in weakness. Always patience not quickness. Silence for peace than loudness, quietness of fear, not hopeless, for time and effort are equally unbiased. We are more than the stories we're told, we're the one's we write, each page unfold. We are the sum of our Lies and truth, fantasy, fiction, faith, and myths, no matter how uncouth. These are what shape us, our lives lived is the proof. We can be more right than wrong. More just than judge. More godlike than unlike. Reflecting Sunlight in our darkest night.
Providing refuge. Never more alive until we die within and begin again. A Human Ark Divine in our human spark.

@@stavros333 What???
@Lee Ann . When you love someone, you not judgemental. Your priority is their happiness and not your bias and prejudice.
They're beautiful and their bond is precious. I admire Barbara for taking her time with marriage.
Women put pressure on other women. I always get why aren’t you married? When are you going to get married and have kids and it is always women asking the questions and judging me. They really always make me feel bad about myself I am always saying after what is wrong with me why doesn’t anyone want me. I know it will all happen one day but women need to stop doing this to other women.
Agreed. I just turned 40, and some of the older generation still look at me and ask why I’m not married and why I don’t have children. Not everyone is on the same journey, and we need to stop judging women based on an antiquated set of values.
Agree! You can feel judgment as if you are incomplete or not fulfilled when that is absolutely not the case
When are you getting married? When are you gonna have kids?
@@whitneydavis7443 maybe stop considering questions as “judgements”.
People have no clue what the word even means anymore. Out dated? 🤦🏻♀️
To judge means to “cast a sentence”. No one has cast a sentence on you for not being married or having kids. You have been taught by this messed up society that EVERYTHING is a judgement. It’s not!
You feeling bad is because of your own lack of confidence in your own self. It’s there with or without those questions.
People don’t make you feel bad. You already feel that way. Them asking you questions just spot lights your ALREADY present feelings of inadequacy. Has nothing to do with the people asking it..or what is being asked.
YOU ARE THE ONE WHO FEELS LIKE LESS THAN A WOMAN FOR NOT BEING MARRIED AND HAVING KIDS...that is why you feel bad when it’s brought up. ..It’s not those asking questions making you feel that way. YOU ALREADY FEEL THAT WAY ABOUT YOURSELF.
THAT IS HOW YOU CONSIDER WOMEN WITHOUT KIDS AND A HUSBAND... which is why your “feelings” go to “I’m being judged for it”....BECAUSE YOU ALREADY JUDGE YOURSELF...AND OTHERS...FOR IT. 🤷🏻♀️
We are all on a different timeline and journey
Thank you Barbara for that one liner 😊 mind if I steel that from you.
“I don’t feel like getting a divorce, it seems like a hassle.”
Nothing wrong with being a single mom. I was raised by one. But I knew as a child I did not want to be a single mom. I wanted my children to have a mom and dad in a loving home together. I longed for that as a child, because I never knew my dad. I am so grateful for my husband of 25 years. He is an awesome father, husband, provider and protector.
Interesting, I grew up with a single mom, but never envied my friends, I noticed their dads were always grouchy, absent emotionally, or alcoholics…I remember feeling grateful I had such a great mother and never had to deal with that.
@J S my experience was different. My best friends had moms and dads at home, except one of them. She and her siblings were raised by their single dad. All of these men were such great examples to me growing up, and I wanted a husband who epitomized what they demonstrated to me.
@@JS-hn5ldAs an SMC myself I want to thank you for this comment. It means a lot .
@@denisealexis4025 love to you. xo
Republicans have been saying a lot of bad stuff about single mums...
I love that Ganny suggested that Barbara have a baby without being married! I never would have thought that she was a feminist as she always seemed quite traditional.
They call it having children out of wedlock, or baby mama for other people, or even illegitimate== but for her its having a baby on your own..go fiqure. 🙃
Oh, I assumed that her Ganny suggested she get pregnant without a partner- like IVF, which would be "having a baby on your own."☺ I thought it was nice Ganny agreed there is more than one way to a family.
@@babyroses12 Two COMPLETELY separate ideas ! Choosing to have a child through a sperm bank or donor versus becoming pregnant with the father abandoning or non existent in the child’s life out of choice are total opposite ends of the spectrum. There is no ‘baby daddy or momma’, nor is there the same mindset of one choosing to be a single parent and proceeding with a process to make that happen and one accidentally becoming pregnant and having a child ‘out of wedlock’. How archaic one’s mindset must be to make such comparisons.
@@kimaltman6919 anytime you have a baby without being married it is out of wedlock .
@@sobeliever1638 You are so funny lady 😂.... hello how are you doing today?
She's so poised, elegant, wise and classy. We need more young women like her!
Fraternal twins that are twins with each parent. Barbara looks just like their mother and Jenna looks just like their father. Amazing.
How awesome to have the baby at that hospital, I’m sure GreatGrandmother was there in spirit for the arrival ❤️❤️😇
Barbara sounds so much like her mother! ❤️
I was just going to say that. It's crazy.
"Having a twin sister is like having a best friend since the womb!" I have two older sisters, one who I share a birthday with 3 years later. Sister power is magical.
This was absolutely THE BEST! I had never seen Jenna and Barbara together. Love it!
They have a few sweet interviews together on YouTUBE! #sissyGirls
I love these two ladies… they’ve done well for themselves…being moms and their individual paths in life…amazing women🙏👍🤍💃
Hey 👋 how are you doing today?
Silver spoon fed diet makes SOOOO much difference in the lives of what would be less than ordinary folk in the real world. And where would they be even yet without the grovelers. You.
Please.
My parents grew up in Midland. My grandpa had an upholsterery shop. They actually did the furniture in “daddy” Bush house at one point. He would talk about how nice they were. It was such a working kind tribute!
It’s interesting how this society thinks there is something wrong with you if you reach a certain age and are still single. So much so that you start to wonder yourself.
"This society" at least is more advanced than in other cultures where if you're not married by 20 then something is wrong with you.
It’s terribly sad and yet so many who are married don’t know a thing about marriage
Barbara sounds JUST like her mom👍
Hey 👋 how are you doing today?
I throughly enjoyed this. Very fond of these two women!! Congratulations Barbara! Love that your Grandmother was with you in a very special way!!
I love these two! Their mother and grandmother were truly some of the greatest first ladies of the United States!
"This should have pepper!" LOL. That was cute.
LoL 🤣...... hello 👋 how are you doing today?
Barbara sounds just like her mom.
How fun it was to see you two together in this format. Loved it all.
She reminds me of V. Beckham
Ugh.. love them! Barb did great! Congratulations on the growing family 💜
THE BOOKS IN THE PANTS STORY WAS GENIUS
This show is so much fun because it’s pure fluff. It’s so great something like this still exists. I have always been a fan of Laura Bush. Her book was so honest and in her own voice. I had the privilege of performing a service for Barbra (the grand-daughter). She couldn’t have been kinder. She presented me with a Vinyard Vines necktie which I’ve never worn but kept in its original box which I shall treasure for life. I also provided service to her Uncle Neil his wife and Jeb and two of his aides, all of whom were extremely nice too.
Waiter? Waitress?
Very inspiring makes me appreciate my sister more
I love there sisterhood you can see they love, respect, and enjoy each other., great job Mr. & Mrs. Bush👌🏾💕❤️
I love hearing the two sisters banter!
These two are awesome! Great job raising them mom & dad!!
I am a boomer late 40s only child. Tons of cousins luckily. One girl cousin especially like my sister 2 years between us. There are 3 of us born the same year. Such cute photos of us all together when small. Every single one of us are still alive!!!! Old folks for sure but still kicking. Glad you had your granny's support. I was blessed with fabulous wonderful grandparents. I still miss them at 72. Also have 2 very close friends for many years. Just find your sisters!!
DO WHAT YOU NEED TO DO...TO BE HAPPY...CREATE THE LIFE YOU WANT.
Lovers of happiness rather than lovers of God. The imma do me generation is here and thriving.
Great sisters.. such a blessing
Goosebumps about the NICU naming story
Growing up I wanted to be like them and I loved their mother at school whenever she read books at school
I ❤️’d This!! It was like an interview between the (2) of them! 💗❤️💗
Great seeing Barbara. Love these two
They’re lovely women. Beautiful relationship ❣️
You had the best grandmother ever! Barbara’s Bush was the leader of your family!! She was brilliant!! Strong woman and you both take after her she was so proud!!
They are so funny! There are so many things I love about this clip!!
I love that you guys wrote a book together. I love it!!!!
This is great! I've never heard her speak so much! This is great! Love these two.
MY GOSH BARBARA IS SO DARN BEAUTIFUL AND INTELLIGENT ...WE DON''T SEE ENOUGH OF HER., THESE TWO FRATERNAL TWINS ARE AWESOME , BARBARA LOOKS LIKE LAURA AND JENNA LIKE HER DAD. LOVE THEM. BOTH TALENTED GALORE.
You two have the best mom and Grandma- fine, elegant, loving! And I love the idea of the superhero’s
They sound exactly the same. Crazy how different they look being twins though!
Not really twins
THERE ARE TWO TYPES of TWINS❣️1) IDENTICAL(which are what U r thinking?)
2)FRATERNAL or TWO SEPARATE EGGS R FERTILIZED vs
1)identical which means twins that came from SAME EGG that separated into TWO EGGS🤓
I dont want to go thru the divorce. That is so amazing.
There is no doubt who these women's parents are. Beautiful.
You are such good sister I believe Barbara have so much of her mom Laura even when she speaks, and Jenna is his papa for sure so nice to see you all the best girls
Wonderful story about your grandmother and the nicu. I think she and your mom are so awesome.
They are beautiful and my parents loved it too!
Love these girls! This was great.
How precious is that!!
Sweet conversation :)
They should do a show together
It makes you feel supepower, super brave! I love that!
Ohhh theirs the baby ….soooooo cute
Lovely to see them relating to each other, beautiful!
Even though I may not agree with the Bushes politically (particularly their parents) I think they are such respectable people. Didn’t make a mockery of the Republican party
They’ve made a mockery of everything! The dad and grandpa should have been tried for crimes against humanity!
@@Q1cool8790 There's a reason they're on NBC, you already know by reading the comment section. They'll probably host the next DNC fundraiser gala...
I had to watch this show when I found out Jenna's twin sister was on the show it was really really good I enjoyed it she's nothing like you but she still sweet as you are and y'all do favor and I can tell y'all or Twins and when y'all were growing up I'm sure all of y'all both of y'all got into everything
I love these two!!!!
I LOVE THEM TOGETHER
I wonder if Daddy has painted her two “babies”? Lovely family. In the ups and downs of life, they stay together and cry and LAUGH together. That cannot be purchased with money….❤❤❤
I could have listened to Barbara and Jenna talk all day !
My sister and I are identical twins. I’m assuming they’re fraternal. It’s so sweet Jenna says “My sissy”. I do the same with my sissy.
She was ahead of her times for the times she lives through
Congratulations on your new born baby. 🙂🙂👍❤❤❤🇺🇸
I really enjoy them. She’s so beautiful
Never heard her speak before. Impressed.
Love you Sister Barbara ❤️... Lot's of Real Love Cora👑
HAHAHA!! My baby was just born on April 13 and YES, target is everything. I'm in and out of Target every other day :-)
These ladies are adorable!!! ❤
Barbara looks so much like her Mom.
My sister and I were never close, she always ran hot and cold, she now takes medication to control her moods, I haven't spoken to her for 5yrs...and I'm alright w/it because I have a best friend who is just like a sister I should have had...
I have 3 sisters and I’m the oldest, the sister that I have never had a good relationship with we’re 13 months apart, and I’ve just came too the conclusion that we never will, she’s so sometimes🙄 I have childhood friends that I’m closer/adore than her……
I absolutely love these two 😍
What do you love about them?
Their complete honesty , their love for each other and I love the stories about George W
😍 that’s good name only a few !
* that’s to name only a few
@@kimthomas8717 they are on tv. There is nothing honest about this PROGRAMING. As long as you love them, good for you. You are already brainwashed. Enjoy
Congratulations on your new baby" 😊 for All"
Aww. Congratulations.
They are so beautiful
They have the same voice!
They're sisters.....
Nice, I wished I had a sister like you two. Was raised as an only child, unfortunately.
They look like the new Hoda and Kathy Lee.
Sister power is awesome
I love the these two always did. They seem so grounded.
Barbara sounds just like her grandmother. Her voice almost seems too old for her or one that you would expect to hear with an older person.
Gorgeous baby 🥰
"Promises I Can Keep," with a socioeconomic twist.
They don’t even look like sisters ! Barbara is beautiful !
Twins are great. I might have two sets myself. One set I know are mine in Mississippi and one set that might be mine as young adults I never about. Girls too both sets it’s like knowing when they get older that they will always have someone no matter what…..even if men in their lives come n go.
Delightful Bush girls!! love their connection
Both of the twins look like both parents, just in different ways. Jenna has her dad's facial features with her head being shaped like her mom. Barbara has her mom's facial features with the head shape similar to her dad.
Barbara sounds like her mother and favors her
Two beautiful sisters but which one is ☺️😚 like....wow
Awesome sisters. Very well grounded
I like this new children's book project. I am working on a children's book I call Mama's Little Helper. I am going to graduate in a few weeks or months from The Institute of Children's Literature. I get an official diploma and hope to get my book published.
That is amazing! Congratulations and all the best to you!
