Parenting a child is not an easy feat. It takes determination and dedication to do right by one's child, which is why parents who do the right thing are often celebrated and honored.

Former First Lady of the United States Michelle Obama took to Instagram to share a cute throwback picture of her husband Barack Obama and their daughter: Malia and Sasha in celebration of Father's day.

The father and daughters seemed to be in a world of their own. Malia smiled and looked away from the camera, while Sasha looked off in the distance. Michelle captioned the post:

"Thank you for the way you love our girls—and all the young people in this country, no matter who they are or where they come from."
