It’s former US First Lady Michelle Obama‘s birthday, and to celebrate, her husband, Barack Obama, on his Instagram, wished her a happy one.
“You’re not only my wife and the mother of my children, you’re my best friend. I love your strength, your grace, and your determination. And I love you more each day. Happy Birthday, @MichelleObama,” he wrote, sharing a photo of the two of them.
Barack Obama also sent flowers to her office and a sweet note to go with. Michelle posted a photo of the flowers on Instagram and wrote:
Thank you @BarackObamafor the beautiful flowers waiting for me in the office this morning. You’re my best friend, biggest fan, and getting notes and flowers from you will never get old. And to the many people from around the country who sent cards and posted on social media, you have no idea how much we love hearing from you. I know birthdays can sometimes be bittersweet (54!), but your messages of hope, generosity, and warmth have always reminded me how lucky and blessed we are.
