When you thought I
wasn't looking,
I saw you feed a
stray cat, and I thought it was good to
be kind to animals;
When you thought
I wasn't looking,
I saw you make my
favorite cake just for me, and I knew
that little things are special
things;
When you thought I wasn't
looking,
I heard you say a prayer,
and I believed there is a God I could
always talk to;
When you thought I
wasn't looking,
I felt you kiss me
goodnight, and I felt loved;
When you thought I wasn't looking,
I saw tears come from your eyes, and I
learned that sometimes things hurt, but
it's okay 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 looked...and wanted to say thanks for
all the things I saw when you thought I
wasn't looking.
Thank you for the sacrifices you have made for me.
Thank you for all you've given me and all you've done for me.
I know there have been times that, had it not been for your unselfishness, my life would have been different: not as balanced, not as happy.
Thank you for giving me life.
Thank you for your example.
Thank you for being my
grandparent.
I wouldn't trade you
even if I could.
I love you so
much.
