The Perfect Family

The world is unmerciful to fathers of many children but today, Aragorn was hailed Dad of the Year. He was talking with someone at work....

Man: How old is your oldest?
Aragorn: 14
Man: Boy or Girl?
Aragorn: Boy
Man: How old is your youngest?
Aragorn: 1
Man: Wow, that's quite a span. Boy or Girl?
Aragorn: Girl
Man: Oh! Now you've got everything you need, one of each.

hahaha now that was the end of the male conversation, to which Aragorn got both the first and the last laugh..... and I got a belly ache from laughing so hard.

Now, if I had been there I would have wanted to put the poor ignorant and innocent man into a state of shock and just casually mention the 8 "middle" children.

  2. Oh, my, that is the funniest thing I've heard all day. Fantastic! I just wish there had been a camera there to capture the expression on the man's face!

  4. I had the same thing happen to me, only when the span between them was 19 years the lady commented " Why did you wait so long between children. So I had the pleasure of telling her I didn't wait for anything. I have 11 in between, nearly sent her over-board!!! lol
