“Happy birthday to the love of my life, Michelle Obama.. You fill every room with warmth, wisdom, humor, and grace – and you look good doing it. I’m so lucky to be able to take on life's adventures with you. Love you!” Obama wrote. Michelle Obama, born on January 17, 1964, celebrated her 61st birthday.

Social media reactions:

The post by Barack Obama prompted a flurry of reactions. One individual wrote, “Happy Birthday, Michelle Obama! Wishing you endless joy, success, and laughter. May your dreams come true today and always!” Another added, “The real adventure in life was probably getting that gorgeous table down into that wine cellar.”

A third expressed, “That's a lovely photo. Best wishes to Michelle. Although the resolution of the photo is insufficient to be certain, I think I recognize some of the wine on the wall. I think I see at least one bottle of La Tache, which usually costs about $6,000. And I think I see a bottle of Gaja Barolo or Barbaresco ($250-600) as well. I looked into perhaps visiting the Gaja winery this summer in Italy, but I think they wanted a charitable donation of about 1200 Euros for four of us. Nice wines!”
