WHEN YOU THOUGHT
I WASN'T LOOKING
When you thought I wasn't looking,
I saw you hang my first painting
on the refrigerator,
and I wanted to paint another one.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 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 good night,
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 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 looked ...
and wanted to say thanks
for all the things I saw
when you thought I wasn't looking.By Author Unknown
