DID YOU KNOW MICHELLE OBAMA GAVE LAURA BUSH A FAREWELL PRESENT?

In the morning, before having coffee at the White House, first lady Michelle Obama handed Laura Bush a present. Inside was a leather-bound journal inscribed with a quote from Louis L'Amour, writer of stories about the United States' Wild West past: "There will come a time when you believe everything is finished. Yet that will be the beginning." Also in the gift box was a pen engraved with Tuesday's date, for Mrs. Bush to begin her memoirs, according to Mrs. Obama's spokeswoman, Katie McCormick Lelyveld.
