Each parent, grandparent, aunt, uncle, teacher, and friend influences the life of a child.
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 immediately wanted to paint another one.
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.
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 that there is a God I could always talk to, and I learned to trust in Him.
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 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."
"Train up a child in the way he should go: and when he is old, he will not depart from it."
- Proverbs 22:6
