A future in Medicine?

I took Matthew with me to the midwife for my checkup. He watched as the nurse took my blood pressure and was exceptionally good during the visit. Later in her office, Matthew found a little toy medical kit. He seized the stethoscope stuck it in his ears and listened to for a heartbeat- in my knee. He then picked up the toy blood pressure cuff and wrapped it around my wrist and put the stethoscope on top. It seems that he was taking notes earlier.

The best toy by far was the midwife's measuring tape. He raced her to see who could push their button quickest to roll it back up. He also measured everything in the office. Matthew measured toys, chairs, my foot, leg, his arm, ect.
