Need help writing dedication for pinning

Nursing Students Student Assist

Published

I have to write a dedication for my pinning ceremony for nursing. It's supposed to be about a minute long and they say 2-3 sentences. I want to say something about my family and friends and all of their support. I want to thank my inlaws for all of the time they kept the kids for us because we couldn't have done it without them. I want to say something to the kids for all the times I had to study and wasn't able to do stuff with the family. And I mostly want to thank my hubby because I never could have done this without him, all of the support he gave me, and doing everything he did to make my dreams come true. How do I word that so it sounds nice, falls within the one minute time frame they want us to stay in and makes it possible to say it all? Can someone help me write this so it sounds good and gets the point across please?

It took me less than a minute to read your post, and I think you pretty much have all the elements there. :)

"I would like to thank my family and friends for all of their support. To my in-laws, thank you for all the times you watched our children, because I couldn't have done this without your help. To my children, thank you for your patience with your mom as she had to study and couldn't spend all of her free time with you. And most of all, thank you to my husband - I couldn't have done this without you and all of your support, and you have helped make my dreams a reality."

See? You practically had it written already! Congrats, by the way! :)
