First Lady Jill Biden gave America a Valentine. On Friday morning, reporters noticed large hearts, emblazoned with words such as “unity,” “compassion” and “courage,” installed on the North Lawn of the White House.
Jill Biden’s office commented on the display: “As you may know, the First Lady is known for her sense of humor, love of surprises, and celebrating traditions, especially with her family. Valentine’s Day has always been one of her favorite holidays. Sending messages of healing, unity, hope, and compassion, this is her Valentine to the country.”
Biden herself added on to that sentiment: “I just wanted some joy and I think just, with the pandemic, everybody’s feeling a little down, so it’s just a little joy, a little hope. That’s all.”
The president himself joined in on the fun, joking that he wouldn’t be telling reporters what he plans on gifting the first lady for Valentine’s Day: “Well it’s not Valentine’s Day, I’m not telling you.”
