MOMMY QUOTES FROM THE FIRST LADY AND HER MOM
[First Lady Obama and her mom cover Essence for month of May]
Mrs. Michelle Obama on what being First Lady means to her:
“It’s an honor and a privilege when you walk into the White House-at least I automatically felt a level of obligation. This is a big responsibility, a wonderful platform and I just want to make sure I take every advantage to serve as a role model, to provide good messages, to be a supportive mate to the President and to make sure that my girls are solid.”
Mrs. Marian Robinson’s advice on raising children: “The main thing that I think needs to be taught to children is the ability to think and make decisions. You don’t have to have a lot of information, but you have to know how to get through the process. If you make mistakes you don’t [just] decide I will never do that again.”









They look alike.
Lovely duo!
What a beautiful photo!
Also love the outfits (minus the belt) and spring colors,
I will definitely buy this issue when it hits newsstands.
I like this picture and both ladies are intelligent women.
Oh Yeah, and look Ma no blonde fried hair. Thank you Michelle for loving your GOD given color of hair. It’s okay to put a little color Even Oprah put some after all these years. Just don’t over do it. Her Mother’s hair is cute.
