Love

When a group of 4 to 8 year-olds where asked the question, "What does love mean?", the answers were broader and deeper than anyone could have imagined. See what you think...

- When someone loves you, the way they say your name is different. You just know that your name is safe in their mouth.
Billy - age 4

- Love is when a girl puts on perfume and a boy puts on shaving cologne and they go out and smell each other.
Karl - age 5

- Love is what makes you smile when you're tired.
Terri - age 4

- Love is what's in the room with you at Christmas if you stop opening presents and listen.
Bobby - age 7

- If you want to learn to love better, you should start with a friend who you hate.
Nikka - age 6

- Love is when you tell a guy you like his shirt, then he wears it everyday.
Noelle - age 7

- Love is when Mommy gives Daddy the best piece of chicken.
Elaine - age 5

- Love is when your puppy licks your face even after you left him alone all day.
Mary Ann - age 4

- You really shouldn't say 'I love you' unless you mean it. But if you mean it, you should say it a lot. People forget.
Jessica - age 8
