Here’s What The Obama’s Have Been Up To | TheThings – TheThings
The Obamas are considered to be one of Americas favorite families for their class, charisma, and charm. Ellen Degeneres recently reached out to former First Lady, Michelle Obama, in an attempt to uncover how her family is coping with the pandemic.
Obama stated in a tweet that it Always brightens my day to get a call from my friend Ellen, especially on this rainy Monday at home... Its good to know that even when were apart, weve still got each other.
According to her recent Instagram post, Michelle said These past few weeks have been scary and difficult for many of us. We just dont have a roadmap for what were currently experiencing -that in and of itself can bring up feelings of anxiety, loneliness, and fear not to mention the worry we feel about the health and safety of our parents, children, and loved ones and the financial security of so many families.
Her posts seem to have a rippling effect on her followers and many of them are comforted by her uplifting words, hopeful messages and inspirational posts.
The Obamas are keeping busy and Michelle was eager to tell CBS News what her bustling brood has been up to. She told CBS, You know, were just trying to, like, structure our days [because] the girls are back because colleges are now online. So theyre off in their respective rooms doing their online classes, and I think Barack is I dont know where he is. He was on the phone on a conference call. I just got finished with a conference call.

Sasha and Malia are taking their studies seriously but are still spending time relaxing and catching up on their favorite shows on Netflix to pass the time. The Former First Lady is aware of the challenges and hardships our communities are facing as a result of the Coronavirus pandemic.
She is fearful of what might happen and feels for all of the folks who are going to suffer because of whats going to happen to the economy and we have to be mindful about what were going to do to support these folks when this quarantine is over. She especially has a soft spot for children during this trying time. She tells CBS News that, This is like no other time in history, particularly for our kids who are so used to being occupied and stimulated all of the time.
Michelle has taken it upon herself to give back to the community and encourage learning outside of the classroom while students are unable to attend classes at school. She has joined up with other celebrities who are passionate about education and lifelong learning to spread words of hope to youngsters and parents alike.
Despite this being a difficult time for countless individuals, in some regards,she sees it as an opportunity for growth. She refers to the situation in a positive light, as its forced us to sit down with each other, to have real conversations, really ask questions and figure out how to keep ourselves occupied without just TV or computers.
She is viewing this situation in an optimistic way and is encouraging families to engage in conversations, play board games together, and bond over shared interests.
She encourages citizens to be grateful for what they have and to surround themselves with positive, uplifting people... even if they have to communicate virtually via facetime, for the time being. There is so much to be grateful for and all we have to do is look around us... it is there even in the grimmest of times.
Theres so much opportunity for personal development and growth currently as we are forced to stay inside and isolate from other people. Its the perfect opportunity to rekindle an existing hobby or find a new passion.
This is a perfect opportunity to practice self-care, andMichelle agrees that there are many ways we can take care of ourselves while so much happening in our world is out of our control at the moment. Take a hot bath, read a good book, or send a letter to a loved one. Despite the craziness, there is still so much to be grateful for.
So, take a page from the Obamas book and choose to see goodness, seek goodness and spread goodness... you never know who might need it most and this is a perfect time to spread a little extra kindness to others.
