Even decades after exchanging the wedding vows, Michelle Obama and former US President Barack Obama looks very much in love. On Wednesday, the former First Lady of the US shared a picture of herself and Obama from their wedding in October 1992. The picture was taken from their reception, where the much-in-love couple was having their moment. The first lady explained how the day was nearly a disaster as Barack Obama woke up with a ‘nasty head cold’.
The throwback picture which shrieks love with every bit of it, is going viral on the internet. And we’re not even complaining. The photo is everything that true love looks like. Sharing the picture, Michelle Obama wrote, “You can’t tell it from this photo, but Barack woke up on our wedding day in October, 1992 with a nasty head cold. Somehow, by the time I met him at the altar, it had miraculously disappeared and we ended up dancing almost all night. Twenty five years later, we’re still having fun, while also doing the hard work to build our partnership and support each other as individuals. I can’t imagine going on this wild ride with anybody else.”
Later she shared another throwback picture from the White House, during Obama’s tenure as the US President. All four of the family can be seen having a family moment in the picture, while couple Michelle and Obama are giving a peck to each other.
It was her caption that melted out hearts. Home is where family is; that’s what Michelle is trying to convey through her emotional post. Be it the White House or their Hyde Park residence, the couple tried to make it a comfortable place for their daughters where they had the freedom to be themselves.
“Home has always been where our family is...It hasn’t mattered whether we’re lounging on a couch in Chicago’s Hyde Park or, as we are here, in the White House. We did our best to make the White House a comfortable place where our girls could climb trees and host slumber parties, where we’d have dinner together as a family, and where we tried to live by the values our parents instilled in us,” she wrote.
The picture has received more than 1 million likes on the photo-sharing app and that sums up how people are moved by Michelle Obama and Barack Obama’s grounded way of living life. President or not, Barack Obama and wife Michelle will continue to rule the hearts of millions.
