Barack and Michelle Obama celebrate their 26th wedding anniversary today, and as they do for all their major days (birthdays and anniversaries), they posted tributes to each other on social media. This year, they had a particularly sweet tweet exchange.
Barack posted on Twitter first, writing, "Happy Anniversary, @MichelleObama. For 26 years, you’ve been an extraordinary partner, someone who can always make me laugh, and my favorite person to see the world with."
Michelle retweeted him and wrote in response, "Thank you @barackobama for 26+ years of love, trust, and respect—for being a man who always lifts up and honors me and our wonderful girls. Each day I’m with you, I’m reminded of what a treasure you truly are to us all."
