LIttle Eyes Are Watching You

A few months back my MeMe said that my little cousin Diamond would put on outfits and say "Don't I look like Chels?!?" I normally wear sweats that have writing down the side and a t-shirt on and that's exactly what she had on. I've noticed that if I go down there she usually copies what I'm wearing and honestly I don't mind it. I'm glad that I can be one of the people that she looks up to and wants to be like. I remember that I used to do the same exact thing with my mom's sister Brianne. I used to want to dress and copy her every move.

This has been on my mind a lot lately mainly because I think of all the other kids out there who don't have a positive influence in their life. Many of the kids I talk to at the school I go to for Next Generation don't have a person in their life who can help them and guide them. We may be the first and only person to talk to them about life choices. It saddens me that kids these days have role models such as actresses and actors, not that some of them aren't good influences, but there is never any interaction or guidance. In order for someone to have an impact there needs to be an interaction and a relationship.

All this being said, I have been watching what I say, do, and even wear lately because I have little eyes watching me. And believe it or not, there's little eyes watching you too! I want to show them that I am living my life for Christ, I am getting my postgraduate degree, and I make family one of my top priorities. You have to strive to be your best, so that when they get older they can strive to be their best. The next time you're surrounded by those little eyes just watch their actions after you have done or said something, it will open your eyes to more than you ever knew. 

Until tomorrow ....
