'Love you all!'

He enters class on Monday morning after a weekend off

Teacher Sumathi.

He had a routine. It is...

As soon as he entered the classroom he looked at the students and said 'Love you all!' Saying that
He knows that what he is saying is a lie. Yes!

He could not love only one student in that class.

Theodore, 'Teddy', who is not dressed properly, and has no special character to point out that anything is not right!

Teacher Sumathi's behavior towards him is different!

He made himself an example of anything wrong.

Rejected him for any good thing.

The quarterly exam for that year came. Progress reports were sent from the class teachers to the signature of the Headmaster.

View and sign reports
The headmaster called the teacher Sumathi.

When he arrived, he said, “The progress report is to announce the progress of a child.
Parents should be given hope that their child has a future!

Parents will lose faith in him when they see what you've written!” she said, pointing to Theodore's progress report.

Teacher Sumadiyo

"I can't do anything about him
I don't even have a good thing to write!”

The headmaster asked an office worker to bring Theodore's past progress reports and give them to Sumathi.
Reports were brought. Sumathi studies extensively every year.

In third class report

Sumathi was shocked to find that 'Theodore was the most talented student in the class' and could not believe what she read.

eport said.

'Theodore's mother is terminally ill with cancer. So he couldn't focus on Theodore like before. The result is beginning to show to him. '

The fifth year report said,

'Theodore's mother is dead.
He needs a caring relationship
falls Otherwise we will lose that child.!'

Sumathi with tears in her eyes

He looked at the headmaster and said, 'What to do?
I know I want to.' He said with determination.

The following Monday morning, teacher Sumathi went to the class and saw the children as usual
He said 'Love you all'.

He knows he is lying this time too.


Because now other children
The extent of his love for Theodore named Teddy
was past He was determined to change his approach to Theodore.

After that the name of Theodore was pronounced over every good thing. His name was carefully omitted during each of the false examples.

The last day of school came that year. All the students had brought gifts for their teacher. Among them was only one box wrapped in an old newspaper.

When teacher Sumathi saw it, her intuition told her that it must have come from Teddy.

First he divided the same.

After taking it apart, there was a half-used cent bottle inside.

There was also a bracelet with some stones falling off.

The entire classroom laughed as they realized the object belonged to Theodore.

Teacher Sumathi said nothing
He applied the perfume on himself.

He took the bracelet and put it on his hand.

Theodore said with a soft smile, "Now you smell like my mother."

This was the last cent he kept before he died.

This bracelet will be placed inside the box
Before he was removed from his body!”

A year passed. A letter was lying on teacher Sumathi's desk. ''

I have seen few more teachers. But you are the best teacher I have ever seen'. With love Teddy.

Got a letter at the end of every year. Along the same lines…

I have seen few more teachers. But you are the best teacher I have ever seen'. With love Teddy.

The years rolled by so fast.

The communication between them was somehow lost. Teacher Sumathi had retired.

After many years he received a letter. Letter

From Dr. Theodore...

Mrs. Sumathi

'I have seen many more people in my life.

You are the best teacher I have ever seen',

Now I am going to get married.

I cannot dream of my marriage without your presence.

I am your Teddy.
Dr. Theodore

Air tickets were also attached.

The teacher was not available to Sumathi.

He no longer has that cent bottle.

The bracelet was secure. Wearing it, he left for the wedding.

When he went there and tried to sit in a back seat, the staff somehow recognized him and took him to a seat in the front row.

It was written on the seat reserved for him

"MOTHER".

The marriage is over. Theodore introduced the teacher Sumathi to his new wife.

"If it wasn't for him, I wouldn't be standing here today."

Tears in Theodore's eyes.

Teacher Sumathi looked at the girl and said 'If not for Teddy,

I never knew that a teacher should first be a mother to her students!”

Respected teachers who read this story!

There is a teddy in your class too.

He is waiting for your help.

You too can be that teacher at ease!

Now, when you enter the classroom the next morning, try not to be a teacher, but to be a mother and a father!

You can be a turning point in a child's life.*

To all teachers

dedication

happiness
