It's a nice piece on our first lady.

1. And it's dead on. She is fresh air in a cave of methane.

2. very nice- here is my favorite part:

Watch her when she visits a local school and you see the warmth and affection she instantly triggers in people. Kids are pretty much totally honest with very good BS-detectors. If they sense you're a phony, forget it. But around the first lady, they want to hug her and laugh with her and tell her stories.

You can see the same qualities these kids recognize in her daughters. She is the consummate mother as evidenced by the poised, polite smiling children she and her husband are raising. I have four daughters, and trust me -- they don't turn out like the Obama children without devoted parents.

I admit I didn't like her at first, but she has won me over.

Smitten with all 5 of them (includes Gramma).
