Michelle Obama celebrated her 53rd birthday recently. What an incredible First Lady she has been! We are all going to miss her in the White House!
Below are a few photos of her and the President over the years. Stolen kisses, warm embraces, and funny faces are everyday behavior for this power couple. They have been best friends since their first movie date on the Southside of Chicago in 1989. Not only is their affection for each other heartwarming, it’s also a shining example of a love that has survived 27 years of monumental ups and downs.
Michelle was not only a champion of support during both of her husband’s presidential campaigns, she has openly supported marriage equality, and frequently travels to foreign countries to empower children living in poverty. She also managed to find time to raise 2 beautiful daughters.
