child’s definition of love

A group of professional people posed this question to a group of 4 to 8 year-olds, “What does love mean?”

“When my grandmother got arthritis, she couldn’t bend over and paint her toenails anymore. So my grandfather does it for her all the time, even when his hands got arthritis too. That’s love.” Rebecca (age 7)

“Love is when you go out to eat and give somebody most of your French 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 a sip before giving it to him, to make sure the taste is OK.” Danny (age 7)

“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)

“I know my older sister loves me because she gives me all her old clothes and has to go out and buy new ones.” Lauren (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 7)

    LOL…. Lauren has a lot to learn. Kudos to her sister though.
