Our first lady turns 48 today!!!! The lovely Michelle Obama!!!! Check out the letter the editor of Essence Magazine wrote to our first lady on her birthday!
To The First Lady of the United States of America:
It must have been a joyful day on January 17, 1964 when you arrived in the world as Michelle LaVaughn Robinson. Marion and Fraser Robinson III, your parents, your big brother Craig, your relatives, and neighbors on Chicago’s South Side were the first to see that beauty and to experience your grace, wisdom, and spirit that would make you stand out in every endeavor you chose.
On this, your 48th birthday, we want to express just how much your warmth, wisdom, spirit, and beauty mean to Black women here and around the world. As our first African-American First Lady, you have gracefully made the role your own, while still being an amazing wife, mother, daughter, sister, friend, and volunteer.
