Her love of family.
First and foremost, Jackie Kennedy was a wife and mother. Despite JFK’s dalliances, Jackie’s devotion never wavered. Pictures of her on the floor or at the beach with a young Caroline and an even younger John Jr. make Jackie relatable. She loved being a mother, and unfortunately, her journey toward motherhood was one of tragedy. She knew the pain of miscarriage, the devastation of having a stillborn (Arabella), and the deep, grievous loss of her newborn, Patrick. Our hearts break over such trials, and as parents ourselves, we rejoice in her happiness.
