A group of professional people posed this question to a group of 4 to 8 year-olds,
"What does love mean?" Here are some of the best answers:
"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."
"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 your puppy licks your face even after you left him alone all day."
"When you love somebody, your eyelashes go up and down and little stars come out of you."
"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."
