Michelle Obama-Tribute to her parents





Millions heard the articulate, moving words of Michelle Obama last night, as she thanked her parents and brother for all they had taught her and sacrificed for her. She spoke of the lessons both she and Barack had learned and the strength that guides them each and every day. Most of us will never get the opportunity she had, to acknowledge on a public stage in such a public way, those people who helped make us what we are today. But that does not mean we should not do it. Think about the lessons you have learned from your parents and family and think about creating a photo story to tell them just how grateful you are. Click here for an example (edited version for private content) of what we can create together. Tell a loved one how grateful you are for their influence in your life.
