One of my little girls is named Reagan. Her first words were, 'Mr. Larry, tear down this crib.' That was her first words, it was very sweet. My first words were, 'Are you going to finish that sandwich?'
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I have days where the only words I say are to the person making my sandwich at the grocery store.
It was my sister Maureen who was responsible for my becoming a Reagan.
I've got seven kids. The three words you hear most around my house are 'hello', 'goodbye', and 'I'm pregnant'.
I was called such names as a kid. Being the smallest boy in the class with a name like Caroll. I remember going home and saying to my mom, 'What were you thinking?'
I was so proud to have the Reagan name and to be Ronald Reagan's son. What a great honor.
I don't expect you'll hear me writing any poems to the greater glory of Ronald and Nancy Reagan.
My first words were always about food - I grew up in northern California, and when I was 10 years old, I had my own pretzel cart business.
Laura Bush has the face of my mother when my mother was young. The face, the body, the voice. The first time I saw on TV Laura Bush, I got frozen because it was as if my mother was not dead. 'Oh, Mama,' I said, 'Mama.'
I think my mom put it best. She said, 'Little girls soften their daddy's hearts.'
President Reagan's one-liners were terrific.
