"Michelle ... Michelle LaVaughn Robinson of the South Side," Obama addressed FLOTUS during his farewell address while the world broke down in tears. "For the past 25 years you have not only been my wife and mother of my children, you have been my best friend."

"You took on a role you didn’t ask for. And you made it your own with grace and with grit and with style, and good humor," he said. "You made the White House a place that belongs to everybody and a new generation sets its sights higher because it has you as a role model."

Are you not crying yet?

"You have made me proud, and you have made the country proud."
