Beautiful work! Love the elephant.

Those are cute. The squirrel one seems a bit cruel though. :-/ I can't imagine the squirrel enjoyed that very much. The truck bra is pretty funny, haha. But I must point out, both are crocheted, not knit. ;) :P

That was my first thought too. :P Beautiful video.

Whoa. Inappropriate much?

Yes, good point. ;) I agree. My intention wasn't to say that that's *all* love is, but I was trying to put it into the most basic explanation. Love is a chemical reaction, but yes, there are quite a bit of emotions and experiences involved that may not fit neatly into a scientific bundle...

I'm not denying that. ;) But you do realize that hormones can have many functions, right? While vasopressin may be responsible for regulating the body's retention of water, it's also a hormone associated with monogamy and love. Science of Love - Cupid's Chemistry - The Naked Scientists...

These are gorgeous. :-)

I joined this forum because I don't *just* talk to those who have the exact same beliefs as I do. Communing with those of differing opinions and beliefs helps me to better understand my own opinions and beliefs. Plus, I learn about other people and where they are coming from. Also, I like...

Star Trek. No contest. It's a lot more *science fiction*. I love the stories about spatial anomalies, time loops, superior alien species, nebulas, etc etc. It feels a lot more realistic than SW. As if that's what the future *could* be like in 400+ years or so. Though, obviously, with...

Both, of course.

That's horrible! :cry:I'm so sorry someone said that to you!

Love is a chemical reaction. For women, the "love"-hormone is oxytocin and for men, it's a hormone called vasopressin. These chemicals create a stronger bond between people and is released after a series of events in their lives, as well as when a mother gives birth. Their purpose is to...

This is the same at our house. We like the background noise. We started letting our oldest watch the SigningTime DVDs daily from birth, and also signed with/to him. By 12 months or so, he had a vastly HUGE vocabulary in sign language (he also spoke). There were times when he knew more sign...
