APRIL

LPR
was not aware that the children of our chief executives -- governors
as well as president -- are also "firsts," like their moms,
our First Ladies.
It is, however, not clear if all the children of the chief exec qualify as "first," or
just the first (elder or eldest) child.

LPR has seen "First
Daughter" references to Barbara Bush and Jenna Bush. Barbara is a
minute older than twin sister Jenna. In the case of these daughters of
President and First Lady Bush, the matter can be finessed by referring
to them as "First Twins." Where there are no siblings, First
seems preferable to Only. (Please note: this writer is an only child.) |
