Slow down for three minutes to read this. It is so worth it. Touching words from the mouth of babes. What does Love mean? A group of professional people posed this question to a group of 4 to 8year-olds, 'What does love mean?' The answers they got were broader and deeper than anyone could haveimagined. See what you think:

'When my grandmother got arthritis, she couldn't bend over and paint hertoenails anymore. So my grandfather does it for her all the time, even when his hands gotarthritis too. That's love.'

'When someone loves you, the way they say your name is different. You just know that your name is safe in their mouth.'

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

'Love is when you go out to eat and give somebody most of your French frieswithout making them give you any of theirs.'

'Love is what makes you smile when you're tired.'

'Love is when my mommy makes coffee for my daddy and she takes a sip beforegiving it to him, to make sure the taste is OK.'

'Love is when you kiss all the time. Then when you get tired of kissing, youstill want to be together and you talk more. My Mommy and Daddy are like that. They look gross when they kiss'

'Love is what's in the room with you at Christmas if you stop openingpresents and listen.'

'If you want to learn to love better, you should start with a friend who youhate,'

'Love is when you tell a guy you like his shirt, then he wears it everyday.'

'During my piano recital, I was on a stage and I was scared. I looked at allthe people watching me and saw my daddy waving and smiling. He was the only one doing that. I wasn't scared anymore.'
