Grandparents Speech 3

"Good morning to everyone present in this room today. We are all assembled here today to celebrate the Grand Parents’ day. It is a day that we usually mark with honouring our grandparents, bringing them to schools, showing them the various talents that we as their grand children have. Through the various programs that we put up for them we tell them how important their presence is in our lives.

Today I am on stage to speak how I feel about mine. It is an honour to be here to represent all my friends and speak on their behalf too. Some of my friends are singing, some are dancing, some are reciting poems, while others are in the school choir. One thing is sure that each one of us are what we are because of the efforts of our teachers, parents and grandparents. I do take this opportunity to thank my grandmother and my grandfather for being there in my life and helping me become a better person. Each day of my life becomes very special. I come here today on this one day, out of the three sixty five days in the whole year to celebrate Grandparents’ day, but the rest of the days they are the ones who celebrate each day as children’s day. Each day they make me feel special by their various ways.

Each day I learn something new either from my grandpa or my grandma. When I go to my grandma, very easily, she teaches me how to fold clothes and help ma to keep my room tidy. Things like keeping the dirty shoes out in the shoe rack helps prevent dust and germs in the house is simply taught by my grandpa when we are back from my evening play and his evening chit-chat with his friends. On some weekends he even teaches me how to fix the plug with wire. Of course along with that I am taught never to try plugging the wire in the switchboard. All the things are carefully removed and tucked in from where they were brought. I do get to learn from them that it is really important to be gracious and courteous all the time you meet someone, even if it means wishing again and again to the same person.

When you have such gems at home, then you know that you are in a place where you know that each mistake you make, you are learning a bit more. Grandparents are people with largest hearts, because they allow you to make them!  They know that it is important for us kids to learn from our own mistakes, so they are super patient with us. Our parents however are a bit in a hurry with us at times. No I am not complaining at all, for I understand how busy they are, and it is important to not waste their time. They are working and they do have their own work pressures to deal with, just like me! When I have my exams, and my activities also need to be pursued, I am rushing here and there and also studying hard to get good marks, same way they need good marks at work too, That, my grand ma has told me.

So no worries, I do know I can be super slow and super naughty with my grandparents! (he he he) So I really thank them from the core of my heart, and each miniscule particle of me wholeheartedly thank my grandmother and grandfather for being with me all the time. I thank them for teaching me and imbibing in me the values and morals that will make me just like them, – super cool and super efficient. I love them and adore them for they are my strongest shield against any danger I may otherwise face. They are my best friends, I can share anything and everything with them, they come up with the best advice. And I thank them for being there as they are the parents of my parents and they even look like them, two sets of parents, with different bodies and age groups. Won’t you call it double the vantage for kids like me?

Thank you!
