Have you ever noticed that sometimes
kids have more wisdom than you would expect? They are always brutally honest,
and I think their innocence almost makes them smarter, because their thoughts
aren't clouded by doubt and worry and stress. Here are some answers children
gave when they were asked "What is love?". I think these are some of
the simplest, yet best descriptions of what love is, and they make me smile :)

for my daddy and she takes a sip before giving it to him, to make sure the
taste is OK.” Danny - age 7

it for her all the time, even when his hands got arthritis too. That’s love.”
