Subject: A D E F I N I T I ON OF LOVE
A group of professionals posed the question "What does love mean?" to a group of 4-8 year-olds and the answers they got were broader and deeper than anyone could have imagined - sent in by Kathe Campbell and Chuck Dishno.
See what you think:
Love is that first feeling you feel before all the bad stuff gets in the way."
"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 a girl puts on perfume and a boy puts on shaving cologne and they go out and smell each other."
"Love is when you go out to eat and give somebody most of your french fries without making them give you any of theirs."
"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."
"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 before giving 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, you still 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 opening presents and listen."
"When you tell someone something bad about yourself and you're scared they won't love you anymore. But then you get surprised because not only do they still love you, they love you even more."
"Love is when you tell a guy you like his shirt, then he wears it everyday."
"Love is like a little old woman and a little old man who are still friends even after they know each other so well."

The Letter Box:
Dear Anne,
"Danger-My Mother" had me laughing! Your mom sounds like my mother. I remember one year mom rented a halloween costume that was supposed to be Cinderella. When my father brought it home, inside the box was actually a french maid costume. Now you have to understand that mom is a very dignified, reserved lady, who would never be cuaght dead in anything remotely sexy! Dad SWORE the costume shop made the mistake, and my mother tried to call and switch them, but they had closed. Since the party was that night, mom squeezed into it and went to the party as a french maid. My dad was grinning from ear to ear and when they came home, he said mom was the hit of the party. Mom's face was red, but she was smiling anyway. She made the best of an embarrassing situation and I'll never forget it!

Dear Susan,
Anne's story was great! I could picture her mother and admire her for handling it like a champion! Anne's stories are my favorite!
~Geena
Dear Funny Friday,
I wanted to tell you how much I loved "Danger, My Mother". As always, Anne's story had me laughing. I can always relate to her stories and look forward to more of them!
