Those Eyes Say A Lot










~ When I am talking and you bend down to my level to look me in the eye as you  listen, I feel cherished.

~ When I see you watching me as I try to climb the monkey bars, I feel encouraged.


~ When I do the right thing and you look at me with smiling eyes,  I feel noticed.


~ When you listen to my worries with acceptance in your eyes, I feel calmed.


~ When I see the confidence in your eyes as you tell me I can do anything if I try my best, I feel confident.


When I am afraid of something that some may think of as silly, but see that in your eyes it's OK, I feel accepted.


When you look into my eyes and tell me I am special, I feel loved.

Not just great parenting advice--this is poetry! I would like to see this blog printed out, framed, and hanging in every home where there are children.
