A middle-aged man was talking to his elderly father.

“I wanted to thank you, Dad, I remember when I was younger and first dating girls, you gave me a piece of advice. You said ‘good companion, good in bed, good mother – pick two.’”

The father looked kindly at his son and nodded.

“Well, I feel like I have a good life. My wife is kind to me and a lovely mother to our three kids.” The father nodded back to his son with a knowing look and replied.

“That’s great, son, but when I said ‘pick two,’ I meant pick the second one.”
