May we interrupt the craziness of election season for a minute?

You may soon return to the racist rants of Donald Trump and/or the stunningly close race between Hillary Clinton and Bernie Sanders.

Before doing so, however, we figured you might want a break from the vitriol, especially when the alternative is a 106-year old woman who just met President Barack Obama and First Lady Michelle Obama for the first time.

And who did a dance of literal joy upon doing so.

We meet Virginia McLaurin in the following video.

Upon seeing the President, she squeals with delight and says it’s "an honor."

The President then tells his wife that McLaurin is 106 years old, to which Michelle responds:

"No, you are not! Oh, my goodness! I want to be like you when I grow up."

She then proceeds to do a little dance with Virginia (and we all know Michelle Obama can dance!), while the President looks in, legitimately tickled over this uplifting guest.

"I thought I would never live to get in the White House," says McLaurin, who was there for Black History Month.

"And I tell you. I am so happy: A black president."

Watch the Obamas interact with McLaurin and just try not to smile for the next 90 seconds:
