With Valentines Day on Feb. 14, students at May Greene Elmenetary School share their thoughts on what makes a good Valentine.
Brooks Sides: "A good Valentine is being good to other people and helping others. It's someone who is nice, and someone who gets you out of trouble. It's someone who shares and is not stingy."
John Clark: "A person is a good Valentine because of their friendship and their love. It's how nice and kind they are, and also the way they behave."
Kisha Steen: "A good Valentine is nice. He never is mean and he is cute. He is gentle, too."
Martin Kelley: "A good Valentine cares about people. You should try and make a friend and treat them the way they treat you. A good Valentine would send roses to people that they love."
Daniel Nathan: "They give gifts with love and are passionate with joy. It's somebody that has peace and a joyful spirit."
Chryl Woods: "A good Valentine is to be kind, sweet and not to fight. You can give people candy and love. A good Valentine should not say bad things about people."
