Barack and Michelle Surprise D.C. Area Second Graders with a Visit...

President Barack Obama and first lady Michelle Obama (wearing a black belted sweater, black skirt and striped blouse) made a surprise stop at a D.C. public school to read to children on Tuesday February 3, 2009. The Obamas stopped in at the Capital City Public Charter School in northwest Washington. The president told a group of excited second-graders: "We were just tired of being in the White House." A moment earlier the president shook each child's hand. What a super cool thing for them to do.
