Obama Takes Selfie With Baby And Mom At Alaska Airport
An Alaska mom was surprised to find former President Obama at the airport in Alaska last week.
Jolene Jackinsky was waiting for a flight at Anchorage International Airport when she ran into the former president.
Jolene Jackinsky said she saw a man that looked like Obama in the waiting area.
“As I got closer, I thought: Oh my God, it is Obama,” she told the Associated Press.
Jackinsky says, Obama asked about her daughter, “Who is this pretty girl?” The two then chatted about kids while the former president held her baby.
“I’m taking your baby,” Obama joked to the baby’s father when he walked up.
Jackinsky then took photos she later shared on social media of the baby with Obama.
“It was unreal, very exciting. After I met him I couldn’t believe I actually talked to him and he held my baby,” she told KTUU.
President Obama was headed back from a family vacation in Indonesia.
