When You Thought I Wasn't Looking

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'

Live simply.

Love generously.

Care deeply.

Speak kindly.

Way-Back WHEN --nesday

"let me tell you a thing or two"

These were taken about 4 years ago,
half the years of my boys life ♥

It happened to be a few days before
Christmas.

What's a boy going to do
with all that excitement?

He told me he wanted to
talk to the dog.
Taking Emma outside
he had a chat with
her about Santa
and Christmas,

...and learning to S I T...

so that Santa would bring
her a big bone for a present.
Ahhhh, precious memories
of little ones days gone by.

i miss em!look closely here...Emma is getting a finger flick,
she needs to "mind me", he would say...."Now SIT."
