Thanks...I always wondered about the two girls but never bothered looking into the facts.  The lack of baby pics is itself odd enough to warrant some digging.  Since they were close friends, a pic or two of the Obama's with the kids isn't all that odd but there is only one or two of those pics. I just can't imagine handing over my kids like that, although they (real parents) are always around.  When did this happen, ie how old were the girls?  And honestly, why BOTH girls?  Really only needed ONE for the optics. Did you notice, in your digging, when/what was the earliest sort of political public "family picture" of the Ob's with the girls?  Had to be a campaign pic or something along that line.
