WHEN YOU THOUGHT I WASN'T LOOKING
children are watching 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.



When you thought I wasn't looking I saw you feed a stray cat, and learned it was good to be kind to animals.



When you thought I wasn't looking I saw you make my favorite cake, and learned little things can be the special things in life.



When you thought I wasn't looking I heard you say a prayer, and knew there is a God I could always talk to, and I learned to trust Him.



When you thought I wasn't looking I saw you make a meal and take it to a sick friend, and learned we all must 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 little, and 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 learned we have to take care of what we're given.



When you thought I wasn't looking I saw how you handled responsibilities, even when you didn't feel good, and learned 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 learned sometimes things hurt, and it's all right to cry.



When you thought I wasn't looking I saw 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 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 received this in my e mail and thought I would share it because it is so true. Children do watch everything we do. Enjoy!

Kenzie's day at school

Kenzie got off of the bus screaming, "Mom it snowed!" It was so cute. Then when I got into her backpack, I found her daily sheet with this on it... Kenzie had wrote her name (not perfect but she tried) and a note from the teacher above it saying "INDEPENDENT WRITING-- ONLY VERBAL PROMPTS!" I am so excited for her! We are definately getting somewhere. Then under the teacher comments part, I find... "SHE CAME IN TELLING ME IT WAS SNOWING-- SUPER EXCITED!" I too saw this when she got home! Construction Zone Newsletter Week 2 Dear Family, This week Kenzie will learn about solving problems. Using the topic "Build with Me," we will read stories about building things and working together to solve problems. You can help your child learn more by talking with him/her about things she/he is doing at school and the new letters and words that he/she is learning. Here are some ways that you can work with your child at home. Think and Talk: What did y...

And WINTER is here!

I look out the window to see.... A BLANKET OF SNOW! It is covering my driveway, walkway, yard.... and we are expecting more this week! I think it is safe to say that winter has finally decided to come! Don't get me wrong, snow is pretty, but I don't like it because that means I have to drive in dangerous conditions! I would much rather be driving in tropical storm force winds and rain (I have done this! When all the hurricanes were going through Florida a couple of years ago!). Now on to other things... Saturday: I had a really busy day. I was at work and didn't think it would ever end. Admissions and falls and sending people to the hospital... stabalizing others and stuff that goes on in the health care centers all the time. Sunday: Zach forgot to add me back into the schedule, so I got off at 2pm. Rode home with Maxx since he lives in Jeffersonville and Ryan and the girls were going to be at his house anyway. When we got there we watched a little of the game an...
