I received this forward today and wanted to share it.
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 meals 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 you how you handled your responsibilities, even when you didn't feel good, and I learned that I would have to be responsiblwhen 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."

We often think that no one ever sees, but the little eyes see alot.
Each of us (parent,grandparent, aunt,uncle, teacher, friend)
influences the life of a child.

How will you touch the life of someone today?

Live simply. Love generously. Care deeply. Speak kindly.
