Not everyone says 'I love you', but we all have many ways of showing we care
There are so many ways to say I love you, without saying any words at all
From lending a hand, extending a hand, offering a gift, giving a hug, sharing a skill and sharing a meal there are so many ways to express our love to family, and friends.
An insightful, and delightful, celebration of how we show we care.
