In September, the Obamasbroke groundon the site, which will eventually hold a museum, a park, a tower with a viewing platform, an athletic facility, a fruit and vegetable garden, a playground, a branch of the city’s public library, and more.
The exhibit honoring Robinson “will feature a scale replica of the East Room, where we held big dinners, replicas of the Blue Room, where we decorated a huge Christmas tree for the holidays, and also a replica of the South Lawn, where we hosted garden tours and Easter egg rolls, where we did state arrivals and so much more,” Michelle said.
Robinson lived with the first family while they were in the White House, where she was known as “Grandma-in-Chief.”
Part of that role was to indulge her granddaughters, whom Michelle shares with former PresidentBarack Obama.
To close the clip, Michelle wished everyone a happy Mother’s Day, adding, “especially to you, Mommy. Love you.”
