She's wearing the white dress. The 4th photo is both Moms (I think).

She was a very cute little girl about 1/2 as tall as Melania. But she caught up quickly. All the talk is about how tall Melania but if you look at the 2nd photo you will see Sasha and Melania are are now almost exactly the same height. Both of them beautiful young women.

but out of sight of the daily intrigues of their dad's presidency it's wonderful to see all those changes in the girls coming at me all at once in these photos.

Thanks for noticing the pleasure of change, friend of m and j! It makes my overcast day bright and beautiful.

Sasha Obama Steps Out for Prom, Looking as Graceful as Only Michelle's Daughters Can

Sasha wore a classic black dress to the Sidwell Friends prom, while Milton, whose waves were sure to have made a few chaperones seasick by the end of the night, matched Sasha’s fly in a classic black tux and the quiet confidence of a man taking the President’s daughter to prom

Who is Chris Milton? Meet Sasha Obama’s 2019 Prom Date

While Sidwell Friends is a highly selective private school located in Bethesda, Maryland, it appears her prom date hails from Middleton, Ohio. Milton’s older brother, Travis, proudly posted of his baby brother’s prom photos on his Facebook page, with the caption, “CONGRATS to Chris and Sasha Obama 2019 Sidwell Prom. Hanging out with the First Family….. PRICELESS!!”

and too daggone cute "Milton, whose waves were sure to have made a few chaperones seasick by the end of the night..."

I wish I could just stop goosebumping thinking of the photos. Sasha and Chris both feel like they're my kids going to the prom. It just gets me right there, as well, seeing her growing beautifully and with such a handsome boy

Here he is taking the president of the United States daughter out to the prom and he knows it is not daddy he has to worry about. He needs to worry about the many secret service there keeping an eye on him and everyone else. Daddy might not have gun but the secret service people do. I cried looking at those pictures.

Sasha Obama stuns in fitted black gown for high school prom
By Christine Burroni

May 25, 2019 | 6:11pm

A social media user, who is purportedly the older cousin of Obama’s date, posted a few snaps of the big night — including photos of her mom, former First Lady Michelle Obama, and older sister, Malia — along with the caption, “When your lil cousin take Sasha Obama to prom.”

His tweet has since been deleted but it didn’t take long before Twitter users, gushing over Sasha’s mature prom look, also shared the photos. A woman who claimed to know her date from his hometown in Ohio also reposted the sweet pics.

She has grown into such a lovely young woman! Both girls have. Beautiful and graceful, just like their parents. It's hard to believe that we have gone from such an amazing family in the White House to the crass, vulgar, horror show that we have now.
