WHEN YOU THOUGHT I WASN'T LOOKING

first painting on the refrigerator, and I immediately
wanted to paint another one.

When you thought I wasn't looking I saw you feed a
stray cat, and saw that it was good to be kind to
animals.

When you thought I wasn't looking, I saw you make my
favorite cake for me and I learned that little things
can be the special things in life.

When you thought I wasn't looking I heard you say a
prayer, and I knew there is a God I could always talk
to and I learned to trust in God.

When you thought I wasn't looking, I saw you make a
meal and take it to a friend who was sick, and I
learned that we all have to help take care of each
other.

When you thought I wasn't looking, I saw you give of
your time to someone who had nothing and I learned
that those who have something should give to those who
don't.

When you thought I wasn't looking, I felt you kiss me
good night and I felt loved and safe.

When you thought I wasn't looking, I saw you take care
of our house and everyone in it and, I learned we have
to take care of what we are given.

When you thought I wasn't looking, I saw how you
handled your responsibilities, even when you didn't
feel good and I learned that I would have to be
responsible when I grow up.

When you thought I wasn't looking, I saw tears come
from your eyes and I learned that sometimes things
hurt, but it's all right to cry.

When you thought I wasn't looking, I saw that you
cared and I wanted to be everything that I could be.

When you thought I wasn't looking, I learned most of
life's lessons that I need to know to be a good and
productive person when I grow up.

When you thought I wasn't looking, I looked at you and
wanted to say "Thanks for all the things I saw when
you thought I wasn't looking
