This story made me me so happy! I love little kids :)
A nurse on the
pediatric ward, before listening to the little ones' chests, would plug the
stethoscope into their ears and let them listen to their own heart. Their eyes
would always light up with awe, but she never got a response equal to four-year
old David's comment. Gently she
tucked the stethoscope into his ears and placed the disk over his heart.
'Listen', she said...'What do you suppose that is?' He drew his eyebrows
together in a puzzled line and looked up as if lost in the mystery of the
strange tap - tap - tapping deep in his chest. Then his face
broke out in a wondrous grin and he asked, "Is that Jesus knocking?"
