6 Years Old - Momtourage: Blogger Knows Best
Momtourage > Blogger Knows Best > 6 Years Old
Sherry Davey


I've learned in my short life that the key to happiness is lowered expectations.  So I'm not expecting any boxes full of chocolates this Valentines nor any naughty lingerie (which is really a present for him more than for me).  I've been hinting for weeks that I like dark chocolate with nuts but I'm sure those hints fell on deaf ears.  Not to worry, they'll taste even better at half price on Sunday.  I'm not expecting much at all:  a hug from my husband; a lovely crayon drawn picture from my 6 year old (the best presents I could ever receive actually).  But one of my girlfriends passed along a great laugh to me for Valentines and I'd like to share it with you....

A man asked his wife what she'd like to have for her Birthday.  "I'd like to be six again'", she replied.
So, on the morning of her birthday, he arose early, made her a nice big bowl of Lucky Charms, and then took her to Six Flags theme park. What a day! He put her on every ride in the park; everything there was.  Five hours later they staggered out. 

Then he took her to  McDonald's for a happy meal.   Then to a movie, with popcorn, a soda pop, and her favorite candy, M&M's. 

Finally she wobbled home with her husband and collapsed into bed exhausted. He leaned over her with a big smile and lovingly asked, 'Well Dear, what was it like being six again?'


Her eyes slowly opened and her expression suddenly changed. '"I meant my dress size, you fool!" 

The moral of the story:  Even when a man is listening, he's gonna get it wrong.

Happy Valentines Day!
