What is Love?

 

 

Quinn counts 16 friends in our circle. We are missing Alexander today. We wished him well. Mrs. Rich spells out F-U-N for Quinn to write on our calendar.  We don’t have a special today, so we are going to have FUN! What words begin like Fun?

Forest:	Forest!
Naomi:	Free. T: Naomi, what’s on your shirt? Naomi: Flowers!
T:	Friends, I added a symbol on our calendar. (A heart) Why am I adding this symbol?
Caroline:	Because it’s almost Valentine’s Day. T: Friends, what is Valentine’s Day?
Naomi:	It’s when you love someone.
Troy:	I really wanted to add my name on there because Momma’s making me Valentine’s shirts.
Naomi:	It’s also when you eat food with guests when they come over.
Caroline:	It’s when you love someone and you give something to them.

Quinn:	I will give my brother some Legos.

Forest:	It’s something where you give pie.
Andie:	It’s where you share something and you love someone and you give something that they love.
Alex:	A day all about love and you get goodie bags and stuff from people.
T:	So, friends, you keep talking about love. What is love? What does love mean?
Quinn:	It means you give someone the things they love.
T:	I love a lot of things. I love pizza. I love reading. I love spring weather. I love the beach. I also love people more than I love things. I love Mr. Rich, and my daughters. I love all of you and Miss Kopp.
Griffin:	It means you are nice.
T:	What does the feeling feel like?
Cian:   T:	Good. It means you care about them. And if you care about them and you want to do what they want to do with you. Boys and girls, think about what you love. What do you love? You can love things, people, and places.
Caroline:	I love my family.
Quinn:	I love the beach and I love pizza. And I love my new dog.
