Once upon a time, there was a little girl named Lily. Lily liked to count. She would count her toys, her fingers, and her toes. One day, Lily went to the doctor's office with her mom. The doctor's office was called the "patient" place.
At the patient place, there were many kids. Some kids were noisy. They would yell and run around. But Lily was a good girl. She sat quietly and waited for her turn. While she waited, she counted the chairs in the room. There were ten chairs!
When it was Lily's turn, she went inside with her mom. The doctor was very nice. He asked Lily to count her fingers and toes. Lily counted, "One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten!" The doctor was happy. Lily was a smart girl. She knew how to count, even at the patient place with noisy kids around.
