To Be 6 Again

I received this in an email and just had to share it. . .


A man was sitting on the edge of the bed, observing his wife
turning back and forth, looking at herself in the mirror.

Since her birthday was not far off he asked what she'd like to
have for her Birthday.

I'd like to be six again, she replied, still looking in the
mirror.

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; the Death Slide,
the Wall of Fear, the Screaming Monster Roller Coaster, everything
there was.

Five hours later they staggered out of the theme park Her head was
reeling and her stomach felt upside down.

He then took her to a McDonald's where he ordered her a Happy
meal w ith extra fries and a chocolate shake.

Then it was off to a movie, popcorn, a soda pop, and her favorite
candy, M&M's. What a fabulous adventure!

Finally she wobbled home with her Husband and collapsed into bed
exhausted.

He leaned over his wife 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 idiot!"

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