Dear Malia and Sasha,
I know that you’ve both had a lot of fun these last two years when I was busy with my work. Today I want to tell you a little more about why I decided to take our family on this journey.
As a young man, I thought life was all about me-about how I’d become successful, and get the things I want. But
then the two of you came into my world. I soon found that the greatest joy in my life was the joy I saw in yours. And I realized that my own life wouldn’t count for much unless I was able to ensure that you had every chance for happiness. In the end, girls, that’s why I ran for(竞选) president: because of what I want for you and for every child in this nation.
I want all our children to go to good schools. I want them to have the chance to go to college –even if their parents aren’t rich. And I want them to get good jobs: jobs that pay well and give them health care, jobs that let them spend time with their own kids.
I want you to see new inventions that improve our lives and make our planet cleaner and safer. America is great not because it is perfect but because it can always be made better—and that the unfinished work of perfecting our union falls to each of us.
These are the things I want for you—to grow up in a world with no limits on your dreams and to grow into excellent women who will help build that world. And I want every child to have the same chances to learn and dream. That’s why I’ve taken our family on this great adventure.
I love you more than you can ever know. We prepare to start our new life together in the White House.
Love, Dad
