What Love Means to
4 to 8 Year Old Kids
A group of professional people posed
this question to a group of 4 to 8 year
olds “What does love mean?” The answers they got were broader, deeper,
and more profound than anyone could
have ever imagined.
♦
♦
♦
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 just 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

Questions That Haunt Me
♦ What disease did cured ham actually have?
♦ How is it that we put a man on the
moon before we figured out it
would be a good idea to put
wheels on luggage?
♦ Why do people pay to go up tall
buildings and then put money in
binoculars to look at things on the
ground?
♦ Why do toasters always have a
setting that burns the toast to a
horrible crisp, which no decent human being would eat?

What Love Means to
4 to 8 Year Old Kids...cont from pg 1
♦ Love is when you go out to eat and
give somebody most of your
French 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 it tastes OK.
-Danny, age 8
♦ Love is what’s in the room with you
at Christmas if you stop opening
presents and just listen.
-Bobby, age 7 (WOW)
♦ If you want to learn to love better,
you should start with a friend who
you hate.
-Nikka, age 6
(we need a few million more
Nikka’s on this planet)
♦ 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
♦ During my piano recital, 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 one doing that. I
wasn’t scared anymore.
-Cindy, age 8

anybody. You don’t see anyone
else kissing me to sleep at night.
-Clare, age 6
♦ Love is when mommy gives daddy
the best piece of chicken.
-Elaine, age 5
♦ Love is when mommy sees daddy
smelly and sweaty and still says
he’s handsomer than Robert Redford. -Chris, age 7
♦ Love is when your puppy licks your
face even after you left him alone
all day. –Mary Ann, age 4
♦ I know my older sister loves me
because she gives me all her old
clothes and has to go out and buy
new ones. –Lauren, age 4
♦ When you love somebody, your
eyelashes go up and down and

People forget. –Jessica, age 8
—————————————————We typically do not start to think of
foods as “too sweet” until our bone

and Your Boss
When you take a long time, you’re
slow.
When your boss takes a long time,
he’s thorough.
When you don’t do it, you’re lazy.
When your boss doesn’t do it, he’s too
busy.
When you make a mistake, you’re an
idiot.
When your boss makes a mistake, he’s
only human.
When you do something without being
told, your overstepping you’re authority.
When your boss does the same thing,
that’s initiative.
ANSWER
TO
SIMPLY
MAZING
When you take a stand, you’re being
bull-headed.
When your boss does it, he’s being
firm.
When you’re out of the office, you’re
wandering around.
When your boss is out of the office,
he’s on business.
When you overlooked a rule of etiquette, you’re being rude.
When your boss skips a few rules, he’s
being original.
When you’re on a day off sick, you’re
always sick.
When your boss is on a day off sick,
he must be very ill.
When you please your boss, you’re
apple polishing.
When your boss pleases his boss, he’s
being cooperative.
When you apply for a leave, you must
be going for an interview.
When your boss applies for a leave,
it’s because he’s overworked.

Tigers cannot purr. To show happiness, tigers squint or close their eyes.
This is because losing vision lowers
defense, so tigers (and many other
cats) only purposefully do so when
they feel comfortable and safe.
—————————————————The reason why old books have such a
distinct smell is because hundreds of
organic compounds in the pages break
down over time and release chemicals
that smell like almond, vanilla, and
grass.

When Columbian drug lord Pablo
Escolar’s home was raided, the military
released the dangerous hippos of his
personal zoo, not knowing what to do
with them. They now thrive in the Columbian rivers. This makes Columbia
have the largest wild hippo population
outside of Africa.

bath you use the bubbles are always white?

Denture Discussions…
Your local Denturist, Vladimir Lysenko can help you understand the circumstances involved in ill-fitting, loose or
broken dentures. Not all of these situations will require a new denture. Here are three procedures commonly
used to treat these issues.
1. RELINE-Requirement occurs when bone and/or tissues change due to shrinkage.
Causes: Tooth loss or weight loss, bone loss in upper or lower jaw,
Sickness or disease, general physiological aging.
New acrylic base material is added to denture to produce a correct fit.
The appearance of the dentures will NOT change.
2. REBASE-Replacement of all pink acrylic denture base material.
Causes: Broken denture, Weakened or old denture base, immediate dentures.
Existing teeth remain in exact same place.
3. REPAIRS-restoring a fractured/damaged denture close to its original
condition. In most cases repair procedure can be done on same day basis.
The denturist will advise you of the condition of your denture and the necessary steps
Needed in preventing further breakage. The bite position, existing teeth, and acrylic
base(s) must be in good condition and not worn or stained to provide a reline/rebase
procedure.
If your current dentures are five years or older they may need replacing.
Ask your denturist for an assessment of your current dentures.
Quality replacement dentures can improve your health and appearance.
