Some of these are hard to believe.
Straight from the mouth of babes....
A group of professional people posed this question to a group of 4 to 8
year-olds. "What does love mean?"
The answers they got were broader and deeper than anyone could have
imagined. See what you think:
"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 8
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 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 kiss all the time. Then when you get tired of kissing,
you still want to be together and you talk more. My Mommy and
Daddy are like that. They look gross when they kiss"
Emily - age 8
"Love is what's in the room with you at Christmas if you stop opening
presents and listen."
Bobby - age 7 (Wow!)
"If you want to learn to love better, you should start with a person 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 wears it
everyday."
Noelle - age 7
"Love is like a little old woman and a little old man who are still
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. I
looked at all the people watching me and saw my daddy waving
and smiling. He was the only one doing that. I wasn't scared
anymore."
Cindy - age 8
"My mommy loves me more than anybody. You 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 says
he is handsomer than Robert Redford."
Chris - age 7
"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
"When you love somebody, your eyelashes go up and down and little
stars come out of you." (what an imagination)
Karen - age 7
"Love is when Mommy sees Daddy on the toilet and she doesn't think
it's gross."
Mark - age 6
"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
The winner was a four year old child whose next door neighbor was
an elderly gentleman who had recently lost his wife. Upon seeing the
man cry, the little boy went into the old gentleman's yard, climbed
onto his lap, and just sat there.
When his Mother asked what he had said to the neighbor, the little
boy said, "Nothing, I just helped him cry."
Some of these are hard to believe.
that's some good stuff SW...cute and funny...thanks.
That's the first time a white person ever said that."If you want to learn to love better, you should start with a person who
you hate,"
Nikka - age 6 (we need a few million more Nikka's on this planet)
omg! those were incredibly cute! Thanks SW.
See, this is why I do what I do for a living. There is something about the innocence of children and how they can say the most amazing things sometimes that make bad days end with a smile. You gotta love kids.
My favorite:

Billy - age 4
I love when my name is said
Love means never having to say you're sorry.
Love hurts, love scars, love wounds and mars
Any heart not tough nor strong enough
To take a lot of pain, take a lot of pain
Love is like a cloud holds a lot of rain
Love hurts, love hurts
Love is Evol
'Love means never having to say you're hungry." -- Charlie Robison
That's the first time a white person ever said that.
I call bull on some of these kids!
Parents told them to say it.
SW made these up. No link.
Not quite....although you'd think I'd changed some names to protect the innocent.....

"Love is when you kiss all the time. Then when you get tired of kissing,
you still want to be together and you talk more. My Mommy and
Daddy are like that. They look gross when they kiss"
Caitlin - age 9
Love is like oxygen.
Love is a many spendored thing... All you need is love.
Love is never having to say you're sorry - even after a conversation like this (quoting my parents at Easter dinner on Sunday):
Mom: I tried to talk to you at 3 this morning, you know.
Dad: I usually ignore you.
Mom: Your hand kind of moved, though.
Dad: Was I making any gestures?
You love her
But she loves him(A freakin foot doctor)
And he loves somebody else
Ya just can't win
And so it goes
Till the day you die
This thing they call love
It's gonna make you cry
I've had the blues
The reds and the pinks
One thing's for sure
Love stinks
Love stinks yeah yeah
Love stinks
Love stinks yeah yeah
Love stinks
Love stinks yeah yeah
Love stinks
Love stinks yeah yeah
Two by two and side by side
Love's gonna find you yes it is
Ya just can't hide
You'll hear it call
Your heart will fall
Then love will fly
It's gone that's all
I don't care what any Casanova thinks
All I can say is
Love stinks
Love stinks
Love stinks yeah yeah
Love stinks
Love stinks yeah yeah
Love stinks
Love stinks yeah yeah
Love stinks
Love stinks yeah yeah
I've been through diamonds
I've been through minks
I've been through it all
Love stinks
Love stinks
Love stinks yeah yeah
Love stinks
Love stinks yeah yeah
Love stinks
Love stinks yeah yeah
Love stinks
Love stinks yeah yeah
Love stinks
Gotta say, that one made me tear up a little."Love is when your puppy licks your face even after you left him
alone all day."
Mary Ann - age 4
