Seasons of Love and LossBy Jenna Bush HagerNarrated by Jenna Bush HagerLength5h 1m
About this audiobook
Jenna Bush Hager,
the former first daughter and granddaughter, #1 New York Times bestselling author, and coanchor
of the Today show, shares moving,
funny stories about her beloved grandparents and the wisdom they passed on that
has shaped her life.
To
the world, George and Barbara Bush were America’s powerful president and influential
first lady. To Jenna Bush Hager, they were her beloved Gampy and Ganny, who
taught her about respect, humility, kindness, and living a life of passion and
meaning—timeless lessons that continue to guide her.
In Midland, Texas, Jenna’s maternal
grandparents, Harold and Jenna Welch—Pa and Grammee—a home builder and
homemaker, lived a quieter life outside the national spotlight. Yet their
influence was no less indelible to their granddaughter. Throughout Jenna’s
childhood and adolescence, the Welches taught her the name of every star in the
sky, the way a dove uses her voice—teaching her to appreciate the beauty in the
smallest things.
Now the mother of three young
children, Jenna pays homage to her grandparents in this collection of
heartwarming, intimate personal essays. Filled with love, laughter, and
unforgettable stories, Everything Beautiful in Its Time captures the
joyous and bittersweet nature of life itself. Jenna reflects on the single year
in which she and her family lost Barbara and George H. W. Bush, and Jenna
Welch. With the light, self-deprecating charm of the bestselling Sisters
First—cowritten with her twin sister, Barbara—Jenna reveals how they
navigated this difficult period with grace, faith, and nostalgic humor,
uplifted by their grandparents’ sage advice and incomparable spirits.
In this moving book, Jenna
remembers the past, cherishes the present, and prepares for the
future—providing a wealth of anecdotes and lessons for her own children and all
of us. Poignant and humorous, intimate and sincere, Everything Beautiful in
Its Time is a warm and wonderful celebration of the enduring power of
family and an exploration of the things that truly matter most.
“As long as I’m
alive, my grandparents will not be forgotten. . . . I hear their voices in the
letters they sent me and in my memories. They offer comfort, support, and
guidance, and I will listen to them always.”
