He already is!

Last Friday a friend told me she wanted to buy two copies of my new book. 

“But I gave you an autographed copy so why do you need two more?” I asked to which she replied they would be gifts. 

She said one copy would be a gift for her son-in-law who just had a birthday.  I know him but unsure of his age asked how old he is now.  She replied he's now 46 years old.

I replied that means he’s a bona-fide middle-aged man as more fully discussed in my book.  I also shared how men start being grouchy when they become middle-aged men?

In true mother-in-law fashion, she replied “He already is!”

Pax Domini sit semper vobiscum
