Michelle Obama reveals the 'greatest gift' she got from her mother as she shares new photo with her daughters, Malia and Sasha

Ahead of the Mother's Day celebrations tomorrow, former US first lady Michelle Obama just shared a new photo with her grown up daughters, Malia and Sasha as she revealed the greatest gift she ever got from her own mother.

According to her, 'with Mother's Day just a couple days away, I find myself thinking a lot about the way my mother raised me. And even though our family was crammed into a tiny apartment, one of the greatest gifts she gave me was the freedom to explore and develop into my own person'.

    'For instance, even though we didn’t have much money, she and my dad cobbled enough money together to send me on a high-school trip to Paris, which opened up the world to me in so many ways. 

And now that I’m raising kids of my own, I wanted to pass that lesson on to my own girls. I’ve been so fortunate to be able to travel with Sasha and Malia all across the country and around the world—experiences my mother never would have dreamed of back when I was their age.

    But though the settings may be different, the message is the same, and it’s one I hope mothers everywhere pass on to their daughters—in seeking out new perspectives and reaching outside of our comfort zones, we can discover more about ourselves.
