WHEN YOU THOUGHT I WASN'T LOOKING

This was an email sent to me and I just wanted to share it...

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 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 well
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."

THIS IS FOR 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?
