We’ve all heard it said that love is not just a word, but also an action. Hearing “I love you” and seeing “I love you” are very different things.
Love means reading that bedtime story for the millionth time because it’s your child’s favorite. It means putting down your phone and really listening to what someone has to say. It is shoveling snow for your elderly neighbor because you know they cannot do it themselves.
Love is giving your child the last homemade chocolate chip cookie, even though you’ve been saving it for yourself because it’s your favorite kind too.
