6. Another amazing image,

it's almost surreal, Cha!

And Sweet Malia turns fifteen~



Also in February Michelle Obama told ABC’s Robin Roberts how her husband feels about Malia growing up.

“Fathers in particular, I don’t think they know how they’re gonna feel until it happens,” the first lady said. “There’s nothing like the look on [the president's] face when Malia dresses up for a party and she’s heading out. He walks past, and she walks past him, and you can see his face sort of just drop a little bit.”

Be patient, they talk a lot at the beginning. It's worth the wait to hear her sing.
