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?
 


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

Leave the rest to God.
