Do you ever feel like people don’t notice you? Does it seem sometimes like people don’t even see what you do? I know sometimes I’ve felt that way before.

So when I saw this quote, it really hit me like a ton of bricks!

“Be the Mom you want them to remember.”

It reminded me of the poem, “When You Thought I Wasn’t Looking,” by Mary Rita Schilke Korzan:

Read on and share with someone who needs to know how important she is!

When you thought I wasn’t looking

You hung my first painting on the refrigerator

And I wanted to paint another.

 

When you thought I wasn’t looking

You fed a stray cat

And I thought it was good to be kind to animals.

When you thought I wasn’t looking

You baked a birthday cake just for me

And I knew that little things were special things.

When you thought I wasn’t looking

You said a prayer

And I believed there was a God that I could always talk to.

When you thought I wasn’t looking
