What Love Means to 4-8-Year-Old Kids - Part 2
Worth Repeatin’
A group of professional people posed this question to a group of 4 to 8-year-olds, 'What does love mean?' Here is Part 2 of those responses.
“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 “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 image) - 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 And the final one: The winner was a 4-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.”
