When You Thought I Wasn't Looking...

I received this in an email today and thought I would put it on my blog! Thanks for sharing Cristie!



WHEN YOU THOUGHT I WASN'T LOOKING
A message every adult should read because children
are watching you and doing as you do, not as you say.

When you thought I wasn't looking I saw you hang
my first painting on the refrigerator, and I immediately
wanted to paint another one.

When you thought I wasn't looking I saw you feed
a stray cat, and I learned that it was good to be kind
to animals.
When you thought I wasn't looking I saw you make
my favorite cake for me, and I learned that the little
things can be the special things in life.

When you thought I wasn't looking I heard you say
a prayer, and I knew that there is a God I could
always talk to, and I learned to trust in Him.
When you thought I wasn't looking I saw you
make a meal and take it to a friend who was sick,
and I learned that we all have to help take care
of each other.

When you thought I wasn't looking, I saw you give
of your time and money to help people who had
nothing, and I learned that those who have
something should give to those who don't.

When you thought I wasn't looking I saw you
take care of our house and everyone in it,
and I learned we have to take care of
what we are given.

When you thought I wasn't looking I saw how
you handled your responsibilities, even when
you didn't feel good, and I learned that I would
have to be responsible when I grow up.

When you thought I wasn't looking I saw tears
come from your eyes, and I learned that
sometimes things hurt, but it's all right to cry.

When you thought I wasn't looking I saw that you
cared, and I wanted to be everything that I could be.

When you thought I wasn't looking I learned most
of life's lessons that I need to know to be a good
and productive person when I grow up.

When you thought I wasn't looking I looked at
you and wanted to say,'Thanks for all the things
I saw when you thought I wasn't looking.'

I AM SENDING THIS TO ALL OF THE PEOPLE I KNOW
WHO DO SO MUCH FOR OTHERS,
BUT THINK THAT NO ONE EVER SEES.
LITTLE EYES SEE A LOT.

Each of us (parent, grandparent, aunt, uncle,
teacher, friend) influences the life of a child.

How will you touch the life of someone today?

Just by sending this to someone else, you will
probably make them at least think about their
influence on others.

Live simply. Love generously.
Care deeply. Speak kindly.
Leave the rest to God.
