Double His Age
The joy and excitement of welcoming a newborn baby into the world is an indescribable feeling for parents. While basking in the glow of his just-born son, one proud dad was congratulated by another father at the nursery. The other dad shared the news of his own newborn daughter, born just the day before, and even went so far as to suggest that their babies might one day marry each other.
Amused by the notion, the original poster jokingly replied that his son could never marry someone twice his age. It took a moment for the other dad to realize that the joke was based on the fact that the other baby was already two days old, while his own son was only one day old. While the joke may not have the same impact the second time around, it highlights the power of humor to bring levity to even the most joyous and meaningful of moments.
