dizzygirl Posted November 15, 2007 Report Share Posted November 15, 2007 this is too cute and sweet not to pass on Slow down for three minutes to read this. It is so worth it. Touching words from the mouth of babes.A group of professional people posed this question to a groupof 4 to 8 year-olds,"What does love mean?"The answers they got were broader and deeper than anyone couldhave imagined.See what you think:"When my grandmother got arthritis, she couldn't bend over andpaint her toenails anymore.So my grandfather does it for her all the time, even when hishands got arthritis too. That's love."Rebecca- age 8"When someone loves you, the way they say your name isdifferent.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 shavingcologne and they go out and smell each other."Karl - age 5"Love is when you go out to eat and give somebody most of yourFrench fries without making them give you any of theirs."Chrissy - age 6"Love is what makes you smile when you're tired."Terri - age 4"Love is when my mommy makes coffee for my daddy and she takes asip before giving it to him, to make sure the taste is OK."Danny - age 7"Love is when you kiss all the time. Then when you get tired ofkissing, you still want to be together and you talk more.My Mommy and Daddy are like that. They look gross when theykiss"Emily - age 8"Love is what's in the room with you at Christmas if you stopopening presents and listen."Bobby - age 7 (Wow!)"If you want to learn to love better, you should start with afriend who you hate,"Nikka - age 6(we need a few million more Nikka's on this planet)"Love is when you tell a guy you like his shirt, then he wearsit everyday."Noelle - age 7"Love is like a little old woman and a little old man who arestill friends even after they know each other so well."Tommy - age 6"During my piano recital, I was on a stage and I was scared. Ilooked at all the people watching me and saw my daddy waving andsmiling.He was the only one doing that. I wasn't scared anymore."Cindy - age 8"My mommy loves me more than anybodyYou don't see anyone else kissing me to sleep at night."Clare - age 6"Love is when Mommy gives Daddy the best piece of chicken."Elaine-age 5"Love is when Mommy sees Daddy smelly and sweaty and still sayshe is handsomer than Robert Redford."Chris - age 7"Love is when your puppy licks your face even after you left himalone all day."Mary Ann - age 4"I know my older sister loves me because she gives me all herold clothes and has to go out and buy new ones."Lauren - age 4"When you love somebody, your eyelashes go up and down andlittle stars come out of you." (what an image)Karen - age 7"Love is when Mommy sees Daddy on the toilet and she doesn'tthink it's gross."Mark - age 6"You really shouldn't say 'I love you' unless you mean it. Butif you mean it, you should say it a lot. People forget."Jessica - age 8And the final one -- Author and lecturer Leo Buscaglia oncetalked about a contest he was asked to judge.The purpose of the contest was to find the most caring child.The winner was a four year old child whose next door neighborwas an elderly gentleman who had recently lost his wife.Upon seeing the man cry, the little boy went into the oldgentleman's yard, climbed onto his lap, and just sat there.When his Mother asked what he had said to the neighbor, thelittle boy said,"Nothing, I just helped him cry" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
