Very touching.

its true huh??

Thanks for posting that... I thought it was beautiful.

Also want to say I enjoy your posts.

I love those verses! This is the one that I had come across years ago and gave to my daughter. (these are somewhat the same, but alittle different). Thanks for the post.

When you thought we weren't looking, we saw you lay a note on our pillow, and we felt the love within you.

When you thought we weren't looking, we saw you feed a stray cat, and we saw your kindness and thought it was wonderful to be good to all of God’s creatures.

When you thought we weren't looking, we saw you make a card and draw a picture for us, and we knew that little things are special things.

When you thought we weren't looking, we heard you say a prayer, and we believed there is a God that we could talk to and that would always be there.
When you thought we weren't looking, we felt you kiss us goodnight, and we felt loved.

When you thought we weren't looking, we saw that you cared, and we wanted to be everything that we could be for you.

When you thought we weren't looking, WE LOOKED....and wanted to say thanks for all the things you do…. when you thought we weren't looking.

We that have small children (I don't 20 & 16 ) should really take this to heart because it so true. I have 2 step grandchildren that are 6 &7 years old and they would be with me any time over there parnets because they see all and with me they get to play and play with me or help my husband we always take time for them and they love us for that. They even told there dad who is my son-in-law that they wanted to live with me can you belive that.

awww...I hope that one day when I have children, they will feel this way.

one can at least HOPE huh??
