When You Thought I Wasn't Looking

Date: 3/13/2006

Part 3 of 3 (Written by a former child)



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 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."



Little Eyes See A Lot

Each of us (parent, grandparent, aunt, uncle, teacher or friend) influence 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. A real friend is hard to find, difficult to leave, and impossible to forget.



Sincerely,
