Michelle Obama, 54, explaining the situation told:
Well, there’s all this protocol. I mean, this is like a state visit, so they tell you that you’re going to do this, they’re going to stand here. Never before do you get this gift, so I’m sort of like okay.
She even went on explained her thoughts about the give when she was handed it over. She said:
What am I supposed to do with this gift? And everyone cleared out and no one would come and take the box. And I’m thinking do we take the picture with? And then my husband saved the day – see he grabbed the box and took it back inside. But everybody cleared out. No staff, no one. I was like what do you do with the box?
The family of former president and former first lady currently reside in the Kalorama neighborhood of Washington D.C.
