Becoming Michelle Obama - by Kennedy

Michelle Obama is the former first lady and was married to President Barack Obama. She is such an inspiration to almost everyone around the world. She made a book about her experiences when she was the first lady. This book is called Becoming and it shows her paths to becoming who she is today.

Children like me see her as a role model and a leader who makes a difference in everything she does.

We had two extra tickets, so we invited Millie and Molly. They were very thankful for the opportunity that they had to listen to such a strong and powerful woman. We had fun watching different pictures of Michelle pop up on the jumbotron. We not only enjoyed that, but we admired the other leaders that spoke at the beginning including Ayesha Curry and two of Michelle's childhood friends. They also spoke a little about their paths to success.

The overall experience to see such a famous and inspirational live was great. Her life must be amazing. I can't imagine how fun it was when she was able to live in the White House. So many people around the world dream of just being able to take a picture of the White House. Michelle Obama is just an all around great person and makes a difference with her actions. She is a big part of history and I wish she was still the First Lady.
