Neil Bush lost his mother Tuesday, but gained a grandson Thursday, completing what he called “the circle of life.”

Neil Bush's daughter Lauren, a granddaughter of former President George H.W. Bush and the late former first lady Barbara Bush, gave birth to a baby boy just two days after Barbara Bush died at age 92.

“Maria and I will always be grateful for being able to say a proper goodbye to our wonderful mother,” Neil Bush wrote on his Facebook page. “And then two days later, yesterday morning, two weeks before her due date, Lauren Bush Lauren gave birth to a beautiful 7 lb 8 oz baby boy Max Walker Lauren.”

Neil Bush’s daughter Lauren, whom he had with first wife Sharon, is married to David Lauren, son of fashion designer Ralph Lauren, the New York Daily News reported.

The couple also has a 2-year-old son James, the report said.

“Maria and I were so blessed to spend lots of time with mom and dad during mom’s last weeks and we are so grateful for the condolences and the outpouring of love expressed towards her by many, many friends,” Neil wrote on his Facebook.
