Here are some cute memories that children make for us:

My grandson was visiting one day when he asked, "Grandma, do you know how you and God are alike?"
I mentally polished my halo while I asked, "No, how are we alike?"
"You're both old," he replied.

I didn't know if my granddaughter had learned her colors yet, so I decided to test her. I would point out something and ask what color it was. She would tell me, and always she was correct. But it was fun for me, so I continued. At last she headed for the door, saying sagely,
"Grandma, I think you should try to figure out some of these yourself!"

When my grandson, Billy, and I entered our vacation cabin, we kept the lights off until we were inside to keep from attracting pesky insects. Still, a few fireflies followed us in.
Noticing them before I did, Billy whispered, "It's no use, Grandpa. The mosquitoes are coming after us with flashlights."

A group of professional people posed this question to a group of 4 to 8 year olds, "What does love mean?"

"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 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 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 what's in the room with you at Christmas if you stop opening presents and listen." Bobby - age 5.

"If you want to learn to love better, you should start with a friend whom you hate." Nikka - age 6.

"There are two kinds of love. Our love. God's love. But God makes both kinds of them." Jenny - age 4.

"Love is when you tell a guy you like his shirt, then he wears it everyday." 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.

"My mommy loves me more than anybody. You don't see anyone else kissing me to sleep at night." Clare - age 5.

"Love is when mommy sees daddy smelly and sweaty and still says he's handsomer than Robert Redford." Chris - age 8.

"Love is when your puppy licks your face even after you left him alone all day." Mary Ann - age 4.

"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.
