Step aside Cindy, it's Michelle's time to shine.
Certainly these next few months will be tricky and eventful for Barack Obama, but the real transition comes from his wife Michelle. She is preparing for this giant step, and has a lot of important decisions to make.
One of which involves parenting: a friend of Michelle has stated that she is "a mom first." The mother of two will try to ease her daughters into the new situation / environment and house. Currently Michelle is "scouting out some schools" in the area.
Second, Michelle must develop an idea for what type of first lady she will be. She has already been compared to Jacqueline Kennedy and Hillary Clinton. Only time will tell what she will do, but one thing is certain; Michelle will continue top be on of Barack's top advisers.
Future First Lady Moment of the Week:
Turns out Paul McCartney has been reading the Michelle Obama and Cindy McCain Update Blog.. If you recall 3 weeks ago on October 19, 2008, I falsely reported Barack Obama's singing anniversary gift.
Sir Paul McCartney is overjoyed with the Obama victory. He is so overjoyed that he wants to serenade the future First Lady. When asked what song he will sing Paul began humming the beginning of a song we all now know..

Update: Michelle Obama was seen touring various D.C. private schools like Georgetown Day School, Sidwell Friends and Maret for daughters, Malia and Sasha. Also, her time at the White House was well spent with a private tour and talk.
There have been so many articles lately about the difficulty of the children's transition into the white house and how Michelle Obama has been chatting with both Hilary Clinton and Laura Bush for advice. Not to mention the media explosion about the type of dog that the children will be getting. It seems like while Barack is preparing for his transition, Michelle is preparing for her own with regards to her children.
Its interesting to see that the media portrayed the Obama family as informal, after Michelle's meeting with White House Staff. This will be a first family that will be able to connect to multiple different age groups and social groups. When the political and legislative avenues have their failures, as they ultimately will, the Obama family will still have charisma.
