Love is in the air...






Isn’t it a beautiful thing to see two people in love. I mean knowing gazes and gestures of admiration. When I watch Barack and Michelle, (yes, we’re on a first name basis. They my cousins.) that’s what I see. They are just so happy and in love. I’ve heard they’ve been married for 16 years! 16yrs and they are most certainly going strong. I watched when he was being sworn in and she looked up with him with eyes that said. “Go on head baby.” Okay I exaggerate. That’s what I would have said and been thinking if it were my husband. But then again my husband is not American so he would never be getting sworn in. In America at least. Digression over. They seem like partners in every sense of the word. She held the Abraham Lincoln Bible for him and stood by his side.





She encouraged him to claim his birth rite as the first Black President and they did it with dignity. They always look back to each other when speaking, Barack still whispers in her ear to encourage a giddy smile and he is smart enough to compliment her repeatedly when she’s looking FIIIERCE. They have ushered in a new era of CLASS for the Black community to aspire to. I just wish I lived down the street from them so I could invite them to dinner. I sincerely wish them well personally and professionally.
