What's it like raising two young girls in the White House?
According to First Lady Michelle Obama, life at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue isn't too different from life at any other household in America with pre-teens. There are sleepovers to be had, chores to be done, and Kardashians to keep up with, and just like so many others, Obama has one main objective when it comes to daughters Malia, 13, and Sasha, 10, telling iVillage, "They're terrific girls, they're poised and they're kind and they're curious. And like any mother, I am just hoping that I don't mess them up."

First Lady Michelle Obama's Advice For Her Daughters - And Yours!
| May 26, 2011 by SHAYLA PERRY |
Although most of us grew up learning about the 3 R's: Reading, Writing, and Arithmetic, and are still trying to make sense of it, in a recent trip to Britain's elite Elizabeth Garrett Anderson School, First Lady Michelle Obama shared that for her daughters, Sasha, 9, and Malia, 12, she and President Obama have a different motto: "Read, Write, Read, Read."
"If the president were here - one of his greatest strengths is reading. That's one of the reasons why he's a good communicator, why he's such a good writer," said Mrs. Obama. "He's a voracious reader. So we're trying to get our girls, no matter what, to just be - to love reading and to challenge themselves with what they read, and not just read the gossip books, but to push themselves beyond and do things that maybe they wouldn't do.

The Obamas: A White House Family Portrait
| Oct 23, 2009 by JENNY SCHAFER |
It's all smiles at the White House! President Barack Obama, First Lady Michelle Obama, and their daughters, Malia, 11, and Sasha, 8, sat for a family portrait in the Green Room of the White House on September 1.
Famed photographer Annie Leibovitz captured this great family shot that was officially released by the White House on Friday (October 23). Noticeably absent? Bo, the Obama family Portugese water dog!
The First Lady recently said the girls easily adjusted to life at the White House:
You know, happiness for me really is when my kids are good and when my family is whole. Moving [to the White House], whatever stresses would be on my husband and me, we could handle; we are grown-ups. But it wouldn't be until the day that my kids came home and said to me, ‘I like it here,’ that I'd feel like I could breathe and know that we're all going to be okay here. And that happened very early into the year. My happiness is measured against theirs - when they're in a good place, I feel really good.”
Barack Obama: "If I Could Be Anything In Life, I Would Be A Good Father"
| Jun 19, 2009 by DESIREE FAWN |
With Father’s Day just around the corner, President Barack Obama took some time to reflect on his years as a father to his two daughters Malia, 11, and Sasha, 8. The 44th US president, who was raised by a single mother, recently penned a letter to his daughters. The following is an excerpt:
It is rarely easy. There are plenty of days of struggle and heartache when, despite our best efforts, we fail to live up to our responsibilities. I know I have been an imperfect father. I know I have made mistakes. I have lost count of all the times, over the years, when the demands of work have taken me from the duties of fatherhood. There were many days out on the campaign trail when I felt like my family was a million miles away, and I knew I was missing moments of my daughters’ lives that I’d never get back. It is a loss I will never fully accept.
Obama also reflects on his ideals as a father: “I think back to the day I drove Michelle and a newborn Malia home from the hospital nearly 11 years ago… I think about the pledge I made to her that day: that I would give her what I never had—that if I could be anything in life, I would be a good father.”
The president's letter will run this Sunday in Parade Magazine.
