Barack also made sure to wish his wife a happy birthday on social media, sharing a gorgeous throwback snap of him looking at her with adoration.
The former president and his wife's relationship have often been considered 'relationship goals' and with his birthday wishes for his wife, you can see why.
Barack captioned the shot saying 'You're not only my wife and the mother of my children, you're my best friend. I love your strength, your grace, and your determination. And I love you more each day. Happy Birthday.'
People in the comment section for the former president's post pointed out the unquestionably loving look Barack is giving Michelle.
One shared: 'Take note how he looks at her.' While another person commented on the Instagram shot 'No caption necessary. He says all of that with the way he looks at her. Happy birthday, Michelle!'

Malia Obama also shared a snap of herself with her mother and captioned it: 'Your power lies in your belief. Not in your size, not in money but in stone-cold-belief.'
Michelle and Barack have been enjoying their time as private citizens, however we will see more of Barack in 2018 as we near the mid-term elections.
'He's keenly aware that injecting himself into day-to-day politics can make it more difficult for other Democratic voices to rise to prominence,' said Katie Hill, a spokeswoman for the former president to Politico.
'You can expect him to continue weighing in strategically and staying above the fray while helping cultivate the next generation of Democratic leadership.'
