What Love means to 4-8 year old children
Slow down for three minutes to read this.
It is so worth it.
Touching words from the mouth of babes.. A group of professional people posed this question
to a group of 4 to 8 year-olds , The answers they got were broader
and deeper than anyone could have imagined
'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 friend 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 every day.' 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 <="center">
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 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'
When there is nothing left but
God , that is when you find out that God is all
you need. Take 60 seconds and give this a shot!
All you do is simply say the following small
prayer for the person who sent you this.
Heavenly Father , please bless all my
friends in whatever it is that You know they may
be needing this day! And may their life be full
of Your peace , prosperity and power as he/she
seeks to have a closer relationship with You.
Amen . Then send it on to other
people , Within hours you caused a multitude of
people to pray for other people. Then sit back
and watch the power of God work in your life.
God Bless You!
