Their
three kids, all successful, agreed to a Sunday
dinner in their honor.
"Happy
Anniversary Mom and Dad," gushed Son No. 1.
'Sorry
I'm running late. I had an emergency at the hospital with a patient, you
know how it is, and I didn't have time to get you a
gift."
"Not
to worry," said the father.
"Important
thing is we're all together today
Son
No. 2 arrived. "You and Mom look great, Dad .I
just flew in from Montreal between
depositions and didn't have time to shop for you. “It’s nothing," said the
father.
"We're
glad you were able to come."
Just
then the daughter arrived.
"Hello
and happy anniversary! Sorry, but my boss is sending me out of town and I
was really busy packing so I didn't have time to get you
anything."
After
they had finished dessert, the father said,
"There's
something your mother and I have wanted to tell you for a long
time.
You
see, we were really poor, but we managed to send each of you to
college.
Through
the years your mother and I knew we loved each other very much, but we
just never found the time to get married."
The
three children gasped and said, "WHAT? You mean we're
bastards?"
"Yep",
said the father. "Cheap ones, too . . ."
