See How Michelle Obama Brings Fans To Tears
She often shares details of her professional and personal life with her followers on social media, and she has recently shared a lovely memory she will never forget. The former First Lady of the United States of America posted a photo of herself and her husband, Barack Obama, and their daughters, Sasha and Malia.
The family was wrapped up against the cold and smiled at the cameras in the throwback photo. In her post, she explained why the shot was taken, and followers responded with strings of hearts and crying emojis.
"I'll never forget the day that Barack announced his candidacy for president in Springfield," she wrote. "February 10, 2007, was bitter cold — about 12 degrees. It was the kind of day where you might think twice about leaving the house if you didn't have to."
She said that she remembers being backstage with girls. Sasha was fussing over her pink hat, and Michelle wondered if Malia was warm enough in her scarf.
