Poem

I have read this poem before but received it in an email and wanted to share it. It's called When You Thought I Wasn't Looking. Take a minute to read it.


This is an excellent reminder of our influence in the lives of our children and those around us. As I was reading I thought about how it isn't just our own children we are touching. We are touching others too, like those in the grocery store, our neighborhood, or our classrooms. Sometimes we get tired of doing the same things day in, day out. I know I do some days. I like a little variety and something that I can anticipate and look forward to. I like this poem because it reminds me that all those little things do matter. Little eyes are watching and learning. We may not see the results of our labor but one day we will. Our Heavenly Father is watching also. No one else may know what we do in a day but He does and it matters to Him. This encourages me to keep on!
