Hugs are an expression of love without words – they can take the hurt out of a child’s scraped knee, soothe a troubled soul, comfort the grieving heart and put a smile on the face of almost any person who gives and receives one.

Hugs speaks for themselves, saying “I care, I accept you, I’m here for you, I’ve missed you, I like to be with you. Some researchers have concluded that children need as many hugs a day as they need glasses of milk. So, give and receive more hugs today.
