Unless of course somebody has deleted it in an effort to make that particular post disappear. I hope Roger is on top of things!

Yes, Toia (LincolnToddFan) described Mary as being tiny on this web page.

I am no expert on Mary's anatomy, but I definitely have seen Mary described as "plump" more often than "tiny."

On this page it says, "Media accounts described the new First Lady as plump and plain and she took such reports as an insult, not just to her but to her husband."

That is the kind of description that I personally have seen most often....much more so than "tiny."
