When You Thought I Wasn't Looking
(A message every parent or adult should read, because children are watching you and doing as you do, not as you say.)
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 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 felt you kiss me good night. I felt loved and safe. ********* 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 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 learned most of life's lessons that I need to know from you--how 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." *********
