Katie, three, had the flu and had to be taken to the pediatrician. As the doctor examined her ears, he asked, “Will I find Big Bird in here?”
“No,” Katie said.
Before looking at her throat, the doctor asked, “Will I find Cookie Monster in here?”
“No.”
Listening to her heart, he asked, “Will I find Barney in here?”
“No,” Katie said firmly. “Jesus is in my heart. Barney is on my underwear.”
