Today, I stand before you with a heart full of emotions that I can hardly understand, but I know they are important. You see, my mom isn’t here with us today, but I want to tell you about her because she was the most amazing person in the whole wide world.
My mommy was my best friend. She used to sing me lullabies and make the best peanut butter and jelly sandwiches. She could make me smile even when I was feeling really sad. But now, she’s not here to do those things anymore, and it makes my heart feel really heavy.
I miss her hugs, her kisses, and the way she would tell me bedtime stories. Sometimes, I cry at night because I want her to come back and tuck me in, just one more time. But my teacher says that she’s in a special place now, watching over me like my guardian ange
You know, when I grow up, I want to be just like my mom. She was kind to everyone, even to people who were not very nice. She taught me that love is the most important thing in the whole world. And even though she’s not here, I can still feel her love all around me.
I drew a picture of my mom and me. We’re holding hands and smiling because that’s how I remember her – always happy and full of love. I know she’s proud of me, and that makes me happy too.
To all the mommies and daddies here, please give your kids extra hugs tonight. Tell them you love them, and never forget to be kind because that’s what my mommy taught me. And to everyone else, thank you for listening to my heart. I hope it made you think about how special your own mommies are.
Even though my mommy isn’t here, I know she’s in my heart, and that’s a special place where she’ll always be. Thank you.
The audience erupts in a mixture of tears and applause, touched by the innocence and pure love conveyed in the kindergartener’s emotional speech.
As I look out at all of you, I see faces that are moved, hearts that are touched, and I want to say thank you. Thank you for listening to my little heart speak about my big love for my mommy.
I know that even though she’s not here physically, she’s here in spirit. And I feel her love when the sun shines or when the wind whispers through the trees. It’s like she’s saying, «I’m still here with you, my sweet child.»
I want to tell all the kids out there that even if your mom or dad isn’t with you, they’re always a part of you. They live in your laughter, in your dreams, and in the love you share with others. So, don’t be sad for too long. Remember the happy times, the silly moments, and the warmth of their hugs.
To all the grown-ups, please keep spreading love and kindness. Hug your children a little tighter, hold their hands a little longer, and cherish every precious moment. Life is short, and love is the most beautiful gift we can give and receive.
And now, let’s dry those tears and smile, just like my mommy would want us to. Let’s celebrate the love we have and the love we’ve lost. Because in the end, love is what makes us strong, and it’s what keeps us connected, even when someone we love is no longer here.
Thank you, everyone, for being a part of my journey today. My mommy may not be physically present, but her love lives on in each and every one of you. And that, to me, is the most beautiful thing in the world.
The kindergartener bravely steps down from the podium, a mixture of smiles and tears on the faces of the audience. As they leave, the room is filled with a sense of gratitude for the reminder that love transcends time and space.
