Love Is?? 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 know
that your name is safe in their mouth."

"Love is when a girl puts on perfume and a boy puts on shaving cologne and
they go out and smell each other."

"Love is when you go out to eat and give somebody most of your French fries
without making them give you any of theirs."

giving it to him, to make sure the taste is OK."

even after they know each other so well."

to sleep at night."
