“Every moment with you is a blessing”- Obama sends loving message to his wife

44th President of the United States of America, Barack Obama, has taken to his official Twitter page to send a loving birthday message to his wife, Michelle.

Obama stated that every day with his wife is a blessing.

He wrote:

“Happy birthday to my love, my partner, and my best friend. Every moment with you is a blessing. Love you, Miche.”

The couple met at their law firm, Sidley Austin LLP. Michelle was assigned to Barack while he was a summer associate in 1989.

He asked her out about a month later. She said she was not so keen at the time.

“Barack, about a month in, asked me out, and I thought ‘No way. This is completely tacky,’” she told ABC News.

Eventually, she relented, and the pair went on a date. They started by having lunch at the Art Institute of Chicago, taking a stroll, then ending up going to see the Spike Lee film “Do The Right Thing.”

In 1991, they got engaged in a simple way at a dinner that was supposed to celebrate Barack passing his bar exam.

“And then the waiter came over with the dessert and a tray. And there was the ring,” Michelle later said. “And I was completely shocked.”

On October 3, 1992, the couple got married.

The couple welcomed their first child, Malia Ann Obama, on July 4, 1998. Her birth is viewed as a patriotic one as July 4 is the Independence Day in the United States of America. Their second child, Natasha Obama, a.k.a Sasha, was born on July 10, 2001.
