Sibling Spotlight: Love is...

Love it or loathe it, Valentine’s Day is upon us. While we understand if chocolate hearts and cheesy cards aren't your thing, at Friends of Karen we can’t resist an opportunity to celebrate love in all its forms. Our Sibling Support Specialists worked with Friends of Karen children both in groups and individual sessions to create a beautiful and sometimes silly love poem. Please enjoy the sweet poetry written by our favorite valentines. We hope it warms your heart on the coldest days of the season.

Love is…

Friends and family, cousins and people who care…

Love is about getting hugs and holding hands…

Love means you can love your teacher and if it's snowing outside, you can draw a heart…

Love is when our hearts are connected to others…

Baking…

Family dinners…

Soccer and Sonic the hedgehog…

Love is feeling how much people care…

When someone is a good person to us…

Our pets! Toto my doggy and Iris- Astor’s Make a Wish…

Friendship…

Love is when my aunt braids my hair when my mom can’t…

Facetime from the hospital even when we are apart…

Love is feeling like you belong…

Love is beautiful…Special…For everyone…

Love is Bad Bunny and basketball…

Love is food… Takis, Wendy’s, McDonalds, cheese, vegetables , candy and pizza!

Days at the beach and pools on a summer day…

Love is a warm feeling inside…

We show our love by telling people we love them, showing respect and kindness and not saying bad words..

Love feels good…

Love feels safe…

Love is…
