Some thoughts for parents

Sharing a beautiful poem which I had read around 8 years back. It moved me tremendously then & I'm sure that all of you with smaller children will relate to it.

I do not have details of the person who wrote it & would be thankful if you can help me locate his/her name.

There are little eyes upon you
  and they're watching night and day,
There are little ears that quickly
  take in every word you say,
There are little hands all eager
  to do anything you do,
And a little child who's dreaming
  of the day he will be like you.

You're the little fellow's idol
  you're the wisest of the wise,
In his little mind about you
  no suspicions ever rise,
He believes in you devoutly
  holds all that you say and do,
He will say and do in your own way
  when he's grown up just like you.

There's a wide-eyed little fellow
  who believes you're always right,
And his eyes are always open
  and he watches day and night,
You are setting an example
  everyday in all you do,
For the little child who's waiting
  to grow up to be just like you.
