Little Eyes Upon You
There are little eyes upon you
and they're watching night and day.
There are little ears that quickly
take in every word you say.
There are little hands all eager
to do anything you do;
And a little boy who's dreaming
of the day he'll be like you.
You're the little fellow's idol,
you're the wisest of the wise.
In his little mind about you
no suspicions ever rise.
He believes in you devoutly,
holds all you say and do;
He will say and do, in your way
when he's grown up just like you.
There's a wide-eyed little fellow
who believes you're always right;
and his eyes are always opened,
and he watches day and night.
You are setting an example
every day in all you do;
For the little boy who's waiting
to grow up to be like you.

This Sunday is Mothers' Day. I love that day. In the past it has always made me take stock of myself as a Mother. We have so much that is depending on how we raise our children. They really do watch the things that we do when we "think" they are not watching. They see more than they hear. They see more than we realize. So, it is not only the things that we say to them but the way we live from day to day. They are being formed day by day and it is our responsibility to see that they have the right foundation.
I wanted to write this special post as a reminder to parents to take care, your children are watching and to Grandparents, take care your Grandchildren are watching!
I do hope you all if you are a Mother or Grandmother have a very HAPPY MOTHERS' DAY! Grandma
