Happy April Fools Day!
Here is what I got from my 83yo father this AM.
"Congratulate me. Your mom is pregnant! Of course, today is April Fools Day."
I got the text while I was refilling 5gal water bottles for our water cooler/dispenser at 06:30. I started laughing and startled a guy leaving the grocery store. I tossed 4 empty bottles in the trunk of my car when I headed out for a blood draw at the lab for an upcoming Doc appointment.
The guy asked what was so funny. I told him, he looked at me, I'm clearly not a young man, shook his head, and started laughing as he walked to his car.
I called mom and dad while I was driving home after loading the bottles in the car. Dad was running with me calling him to congratulate him. Mom, dived right in and told me, "What your dad does not know is that it is not his!". Mom is 81. They decided to not ask for any further congratulations until they get listed in the Guinness Book of World Records.

Re: Happy April Fools Day!
When my late FIL turned 80 my MIL called my husband and said in this really hushed tone “You have to help me because I don’t know what to do - when I woke up this morning there was a 80 year old man in my bed!”
