Talk about the fruit of one's labor...


It is the first day of Black History Month and as promised I am posting one post a week about a worthy African American Woman. The first post is about a woman who truly embodies the fruits of the labor of one body of people. She came from a very modest background, managed to attend and succeed at some of the nation's best school's. Her undergraduate degree was earned from Princeton University and her law degree from Hardvard Law School. She accepted a job at a law firm, where she met and was the boss of her future husband, but stayed true to her desire of using her blessings to give back to the modest community she'd came from and even those not as fortunate as she was even then. This woman is an intellectual, wife, mother, philanthropist, role model, fashion icon and First Lady of the United States!!!!
Michelle Obama embodies everything a First Lady should be. She's smart, poised, respectful, articulate, enthusiastic, strong, active in the political realm and supportive of her husband WITHOUT compromising her feminity and place as his partner, mother to 2 beautiful little girls, and a leader for a population of women whom society has refused to take notice of forever. I love this woman and everything she brings to her title as First Lady. Michelle Obama SERVES professional glam everytime we see her, with makeup, hair, and clothes...her look is carefully manicured to a T....who says you can't be cute, glamorous, and sexy yet conservative as the first lady of the United States???
