Former U.S. President George W. Bush, now 78, joyfully announced the birth of his new grandson on social media.
On Tuesday, August 6, Bush shared a heartfelt photo on Instagram to celebrate the arrival of his daughter Barbara Pierce Bush’s second child with husband Craig Coyne. The couple, who already have a 2-year-old daughter, Cora Georgia, welcomed their son, Edward Finn, just days earlier.
In the sweet photo, Barbara and Craig are seen in a hospital bed, tenderly holding their newborn as they gaze at him with joy. “Welcome to the world, Edward Finn Coyne. @laurawbush and I are proud grandparents of our newest blessing, born on August 4 and lovingly named in honor of his great-grandfathers,” Bush captioned the post. He added, “Congratulations to Barbara, Craig, and big sister Cora Georgia.”
Barbara’s twin sister, Jenna Bush Hager, was the first to share the happy news on Monday, August 5. Jenna, co-anchor of the Today show, expressed her excitement about becoming an aunt again on Instagram, writing, “My sissy had a little mister and I fell madly in love with Edward Finn! ❤️💗👼.”
Jenna’s post included a series of photos from the family’s special moments after Edward’s birth. In one, Jenna is seen feeding her new nephew, while another shows Barbara cradling Edward with Jenna admiring the scene. A third photo captures Edward peacefully resting in his mother’s arms.
Though Jenna didn’t share specific birth details, one of the photos shows Edward wearing a hat from NYU Langone Health, suggesting Barbara may have given birth at the prestigious New York City hospital.
This is not the first time George W. Bush and his wife, Laura, have expressed their joy over becoming grandparents. When Barbara and Craig welcomed their daughter Cora in September 2021, the Bushes released a statement to announce the news.
“With full hearts, @laurawbush and I are delighted to announce the birth of our new granddaughter. Barbara gave birth to Cora Georgia Coyne on September 27, 2021, in Maine – not far from our family home where Barbara and Craig were married,” the couple shared at the time. “Cora is healthy and adorable, and we are proud and grateful.”
Now, with the addition of Edward Finn, the Bush family has even more to celebrate!
Incredible Rescue: Hero Dog Saves Lives and Gets a Second Chance
Do you think canines can truly be heroes? Introducing Ivy, an 18-year-old terrier mix who showed that she possesses a brave and loving heart. When Ivy first arrived on June 2 at the Smith County Animal Shelter in Texas, she had no idea that her deeds would make her a true hero dog.
Dogs can donate blood to help those in need, just like people can. Because of her blood type, Ivy can donate blood to anyone, which makes her a priceless asset to the shelter. She generously gave blood, saving the lives of several canines in critical need of transfusions. Ivy is a dog who is certainly worth praising because of her bravery and compassion.
But in spite of her noble deeds, Ivy was put in a terrible predicament. She was in danger of dying since no one wanted to adopt her. That’s correct, this incredible hero dog was just a few minutes away from being put to sleep. It’s unbelievable that Ivy met with such a terrible end after sparing so many lives.
Nevertheless, Ivy’s story made it to the local news station CBS19 because of the perseverance and kindness of Pearl Wittholt, a volunteer with Saving Animals from Euthanasia in Texas. Pearl aspired to rescue Ivy’s life and give her the second chance she so richly earned with the help of the community and the media.
CBS19 has already volunteered to support a hero dog. They already told the tale of Stanford, a different blood-donating dog who met a similar end, earlier this year. The community came together to save Stanford, and he was adopted. Pearl believed that Ivy could experience the same thing.
And indeed, miracles do occur! The media attention paid off, as CBS19 revealed an encouraging update: Ivy had found her forever home. This brave dog was saved from death and given the opportunity to live out her last years in a loving home because of the amazing support of the community.
However, the tale is not over yet. Three more heroic canines are currently at the Smith County Animal Shelter, waiting for their permanent homes, as reported by CBS19. It’s our chance to prevent these courageous dogs from suffering the same destiny that Ivy just barely avoided. These dogs continue to save lives. Together, let’s think about giving these amazing heroes access to our homes and hearts.
There should never be a chance that a dog, particularly one who has saved so many lives, will be put down. The touching relationship people have with their animal companions is brought to light by Ivy’s narrative. She is safe and sound in her new home, which is nice, but more needs to be done.
Let’s tell everyone about this amazing news of Ivy’s second chance. By working together, we can improve the lives of these heroic canines and make sure they receive the affection and attention they need.
