(7,888 posts)4. Just what I needed for inspiration.
Her brother looked familiar. Looked it up, head basketball coach Oregon State. Another great public speaker, so genuine and very lovable (you are more lovable Michelle, imo)
After 15mins into an interview, I am often bored or certain it is a PR pitch. Not this one, Robin was fantastic it appeared to me she was talking with two of her best friends or family.
Then, the banter between brother and sister, the civility, the laughter, the joy were incredible. First Lady Obama shared her tragic losses without being sad. She is a beautiful woman, and a role model for all.
Of course, this also reminds me of who and what shame we must endure.
