- When you thought I wasn’t
looking, I saw you feed a stray cat, and I learned that it was good to be kind
to animals. I also saw you make my favorite cake for me, and I learned that the
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 and money to help people 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. I also 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.”
