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 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 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 its 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.
