Michelle Obama Takes The Colbert Questionert

[@MrsPhelan2A08]

When Obama was first elected, my daughter was just a little younger than the girls, and she wanted to put together some presents for the two of them when they moved into the White House - I think it was bubbles and some crayons? And so we packaged it up and sent it in the mail to Sasha and Malia. Not really thinking anymore about it, one day my daughter got a letter in the mail from Michelle Obama thanking her for her thoughtfulness. She was overjoyed and we will forever feel a very special connection to the First Lady 🥰 (It was most likely just her office, but we don’t care!) It was so wonderful ❤

[@Larryshouseoftoast]

The whole Obama family is so gracious!

[@tracybosworth1033]

❤❤❤❤

[@amylumbard9187]

That's so sweet and praise you for bringing up thoughtful children aswell. The Obamas were the best and it's so sad that they left a great legacy however trump just ruined it completely tried to become an emperor of sorts by lovingly watching TV of gladiator type ppl fight for him and ppl died that day overthrowing elections like dictator Putin. Im glad we got flotus again Jill Biden cuz the last one she did nothing.

Hi Sarah, I read Barack's lastestdbook and he says that all throughout his presidency he would sit down sometimes late at night to read and answer letters that were sent by people from all over the country. Apparently they actually do this type of thing. Maybe it really was her who wrote to you back then 😊
