FIRST GRANDMA, MARION ROBINSON, MOVING TO WHITE HOUSE
U.S. President-elect Barack Obama, his wife Michelle (2nd L) and their daughters Sasha (2nd R) and Malia walked down the steps of the Lincoln Memorial in Washington on January 10, 2009.
Meanwhile, Barack Obama’s mother-in-Law, Marian Robinson, 71, will be moving to the White House to help settle her granddaughters, Malia and Sasha, in their new home.
“She will determine in the coming months whether or not she wants to stay in D.C. permanently,” said transition spokeswoman Katie McCormick Lelyveld.
In November of last year, Marion told People magazine that she is not sure she would want to live in the White House because it reminds her of a museum.
The White House reminds me of a museum. How do you sleep in a museum?

i wander if his family from kenya and the rest of Michelle’s family are going to move in?
Why would the rest of the family move in? That’s just something I can’t see happening. Michelle’s mom will be moving in to help take care of the girls.
@ Katie,
Get your punctuation and spelling together before you try and leave snide comments about our president and his family. If you are a true American, support this great man as he preps to lead our nation through very arduous times…
I think it’s a wonderful idea that grand mama is moving in. That’s the way it used to be back in the day. No one can care of your children like a good grandmother. Kudos to the Obamas.
It is a wonderful idea for Michelle’s mother to move into the White House. They have a babysitter and she can continue to help with the girls.
I love the idea of the grandmother moving in, thats sweet, there’s nothing like a grandmother’s love.
I like the way the girls carry themselves (like little girls)
