Parker Curry, 2, made national headlines when a bystander at the National Portrait Gallery took a photo of her gazing in awe at the portrait of former First Lady Michelle Obama. Now, she’s dancing with her.

Obama paid a visit to Curry to meet her and her mother, Jessica, and share a little dance. Curry reportedly loved seeing Obama dance on Ellen and thinks she is a “queen.”

Curry’s awestruck expression as she gazed at the portrait, painted by Baltimore native Amy Sherald, went viral on Facebook:

21. I really needed this heartwarming outreach...you go Michelle and Parker

[0rganism]

22. wow, the comment section on the linked article is ... amazing

hard to tell where the KKK leaves off and the Russian trolls begin
a few heartfelt messages of support, and a whole lot of racism/sexism/fascism.

somehow i thought, wrongly, that even Republicans wouldn't find anything to shit on in the article. i was wrong, so very wrong.

[Cha]

25. That's who they are. lol@..

hard to tell where the KKK leaves off and the Russian trolls begin

They're all stupid assholes.

[LAS14]

33. What is Mediate.com that it should have so many vile readers???? nt

[EffieBlack]

24. No words

[mountain grammy]

26. Only a reminder that sanity and beauty

are no longer part of our narrative.

[Maven]

27. DYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYINNNNNNNNNNNNG

OMG this is what I needed today. Thank you!

[erlewyne]

28. Thanks a million bystander

[Yavin4]

30. We got get rid of Trump and the Republicans

We can't have this little girl growing up in their America!

[Ohiogal]

31. What a refreshing scene

in comparison to that pair of ice cold creeps in the WH now.

[LAS14]

32. Awwww!! nt

[demigoddess]

34. 3 great ladies,

Michelle Obama, Parker and Parker's mother.

[NastyRiffraff]

35. I needed this today.

Just beautiful, Michelle and that adorable little Parker. Thanks for posting!

[NBachers]

36. You know what? Parker made me change my mind about that portrait. Now I love it!

[Control-Z]

43. I was just thinking how great

the portrait looked hanging and with Parker mesmerized by it.

I already kind of liked it. I actually loved it from the neck down - the dress is fantastic.

[struggle4progress]

37. .

[Botany]

39. God, how I miss the Obamas and Bidens.

Total class .... and who is chopping the onions?

[BumRushDaShow]

40. What a great follow-up and lucky for that little one

to meet her "queen" and jam with her too!!!!

[ProudLib72]

41. Can you imagine when she grows up?

The chance to brag! Oooohhhhh, I want to dance with Michelle!

[brer cat]

42. Beautiful!

Caring and classy.

[TomCADem]

44. That is so Cute!

Adorable!

[PoindexterOglethorpe]

45. Wow. It's hard to know what to be most amazed by:

the little girl's expression of wonder and awe, or Michelle Obama's natural warmth and connection with that child.

[heaven05]

46. I am

so proud to have witnessed the Obama family in my lifetime. The Obama's have outshown with class, integrity, kindness and intelligence anyone occupying 1600 at this time. The potus and 1st lady we now have are tragic in their ineptitude.

[AtheistCrusader]

47. I guess it's Karma. In the end we had to pay for it.

We had 8 years of grace, class, and humility from the entire First Family, and now... The wheel has turned.

Here's hoping for the next iteration.

[Neema]

48. My love for Michelle Obama knows no bounds but can we talk about

HOW FREAKING ADORABLE THAT LITTLE GIRL IS? My heart is bursting!
