Jenna Bush Hager‘s daughters pulled out all the stops for her birthday!
“They decorated my room in the hotel when Henry and I went out, and I came home after maybe a cup of mulled wine or two,” Jenna shared onTodayon Monday. “My door had streamers on it, and it said, ‘Happy birthday, Jenna,’ which was strange. Poppy’s started calling me Jenna.”
“They decorated the fireplace. They also wrote a sign for four reasons why they liked me or loved me, and the fourth was that without me, they would be in an orphanage,” Jenna continued. “Henry was like, ‘What about me? Am I chopped liver?’ ”
Former First LadyLaura Bushsaw a bit of Jenna in the girls’ sign. “My mom was like, ‘They may be slightly dramatic like you,’ ” Jenna joked.
Todaycaptured Jenna’s Instagram story posts that showed off Mila and Poppy’s decorating — from homemade cards to the red sign to white and blue streamers on the door.
