“I am an example of what is possible when girls from the very beginning of their lives are loved and nurtured by people around them. I was surrounded by extraordinary women in my life who taught me about quiet strength and dignity.”
– Michelle Obama

I miss the Obama family. So glad Michelle is still sharing her wisdom far and wide. I can understand our former President taking a little time off and know he’s doing good work.

I miss them, too. I love that they still pop up on social media. I especially love the photos Pete Souza posts from his time as the White House photographer.
