To help kick off Mother’s Day in a FAB way, VH1 put together an event to honor all of the incredible moms that make this world a better place.

Taking a break from filming his new movie Collateral Beauty,Will Smith took center stage to honor his lovely wife of nearly 20 years Jada Pinkett Smith. But his speech likely had his kids Trey, Jaden and Willow squirming in their seats in the audience when he started reflecting on his and his wife's baby making days.

The Hollywood actor said:

"I'm not gonna be silly. I'm here to honor you. Just watching the piece with the kids it just takes me back to when we made them. Can't help but think about that. It's just amazing. It's like you take Jada Pinkett Smith and an obscure town in Mexico and some tequila and you end up with great kids!"

Ha!

He continued, "Jada is magical. Part of why I love her is things happen in a way they shouldn't happen, they shouldn't go that way. She has this magical power."

Aww! So sweet.

The upcoming Bad Moms starlet hit the stage after her husband to gush over her incredible family life and how grateful she is. She said,

"I never thought about being married or having a family. I didn't know anything about that because I came from a single mom so I always though I'd be a single mom and have a career. Then I found this beautiful man, Will. I got married to him and I got my bonus son Trey and then I got Jaden and I got Willow and I was able to create, for myself, something I never had—which means family."

*tear*
