I would like to share some quotes from children found in a local paper called the coffee break.
Kids on love
"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." - 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." - 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." - 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." - age 6
"Love is what makes you smile when you are tired." - 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 okay." - age 7
"Love is when you tell a guy you like his shirt, then he wears it everyday." - 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." - age 8
"Love is like a little of woman and a little old man who are still friends even after they know each other so well." - age 6
"Love is when Mommy gives Daddy the best piece of chicken." - age 5
"During my piano rectial, 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 on doing that. I wasn't scared anymore." - age 8
"Love is when Mommy sees Daddy smelly and sweaty and still says he is handsomer than Robert Redford." - age 7
"I know my older sister loves me because she gives me all her old clothes and has to go and buy new ones." - age 4
"Love is when Mommy sees Daddy on the toilet and she doesn't think it's gross." - 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." - age 8
I wanted to share these with you all, children have such an innocent unfettered view of love. We adults often miss what a child sees and these quotes show us just that, these children see the little things that tell others we love them. I hope you enjoy these and enjoy your Valentines day.
