Pledge of Allegiance

in Primary Schools / by Gene Bedley
March 7, 2013

The teacher advised the class to start the day with the Pledge of Allegiance,

and instructed them to put their right hands over their hearts and repeat

after him. He looked around the room as he started the recitation,

“I pledge allegiance to the flag…”

“When his eyes fell upon Little Johnny, he noticed his hand over the right

cheek of his buttocks. “Little Johnny, I will not continue until you put your

hand over your heart.” Little Johnny replied, “It is over my heart.” After several attempts to get Little Johnny to put his hand over his heart, the teacher asked, “Why do you think that is your heart?” “Because every time my Grandma comes to visit, she picks me up, pats me here, and says, ‘Bless your little heart,’ and my Grandma wouldn’t lie!”
