I got this in an email. It was really long so I only copied a portion of it. I thought it was cute.

What is Love?

A group of professional people posed the 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:

"Love is that first feeling you feel before all the bad stuff gets in
the way."
-- Charlie, age 5

"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." -- 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 when someone hurts you. And you get so mad but you don't yell
at them because you know it would hurt their feelings." -- Samantha, 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 5

I have seen this before, but am so glad you posted it because I lost it!

Some of these are so priceless, and so true...like the one about Grampa and Gramma!

and Love being in the room at Christmas when you stop and listen


And my fave..."Love is what makes you smile when you're tired" :

Cleo:

I have the complete email, if you would like it. I just thought it was so long and would take too long to read it all. Maybe I could post the second half. Glad you enjoyed it.

Miss Whitney,

Out of the mouths of babes! My favorite is "the girl puts on perfume and the boy puts on shaving cologne and they smell each other."
