A man sat on the edge of the bed, watching his wife as she gazed at herself in the mirror. Her birthday was approaching, so he asked her what she’d like as a gift.

“I’d like to be eight again,” she said, still staring at her reflection.

On the morning of her birthday, he woke up early, made her a big bowl of Coco Pops, and whisked her away to Adventure World theme park. He took her on every ride—the Death Slide, the Wall of Fear, the Screaming Roller Coaster—everything!

After hours of dizzying fun, they left the park. Her head was spinning, her stomach was uneasy, but her day wasn’t over yet. He brought her to McDonald’s for a Happy Meal with extra fries and a chocolate shake.

Next, they went to the movies. Popcorn, soda, and a pack of her favorite M&M’s made the experience complete. It was a jam-packed day full of excitement.

Exhausted, they finally got home. She collapsed into bed. Smiling, her husband leaned over and asked, “Well, dear, what was it like being eight again?”

She opened her eyes, stared at him for a moment, and said, “I meant my dress size, you idiot!”
