Watch

Watch what you do.
Children are watching.

Watch what you say.
They hear you.

Watch your stance.
Children are hypervigilant.

Watch your face.
They pick up on every little wisp of emotion.

Watch yourself.
Children are everywhere.

So true, children are such mirrors of their parents!

We laugh together after conferences, as the mannerisms and ideas are so similar to their parents.
