One of the classiest, most elegant and likeable First Ladies ever celebrates her 49th birthday today. Happy birthday, Michelle Obama!
Setting a great example for people everyone, the First Lady chooses to be a working mom, supports and grounds her famous husband and has never been concerned with being a trophy wife, like some previous first ladies.
With her “Let’s Move” campaign to encourage a healthy lifestyle for the entire family, to looking glamorous and enviable in department store garments, it’s no surprise that surveys have concluded that she is more popular than her husband, the President!
