to paint another one.

stray cat, and I learned that it was good to be kind
to animals

the special things in life.

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 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.

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.

care of our house and everyone in it and I learned
we have to take care of what we are given.

handled your responsibilities, even when you didn't
feel good and I lea! rned that I would have to be
responsible when I grow up.

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.

and wanted to say, "Thanks for all the things I saw
when you though! t I wasn't looking."
