Once upon a time, there was a loving husband and wife who had spent many happy years together. As they both grew older, they realized the importance of addressing the needs that come with age. One morning, the wife discovered a note from her husband on the refrigerator door.

With a mix of curiosity and concern, she began to read the note. Her husband expressed his deep love and appreciation for his wife, acknowledging her as a wonderful partner. However, he also mentioned that there were certain desires he had that she, being 57 years old, might not be able to fulfill anymore. He honestly disclosed that he would be spending the evening with his 19-year-old secretary at the Comfort Inn hotel, hoping that she wouldn’t be too upset.

Rather than getting upset, the wife decided to take a lighthearted approach to the situation. Later that night, when her husband returned home, he found a note waiting for him on the dining table. The wife, in her cleverness, thanked him for his honesty about her age. But she wanted to remind him of something important: they were both 57 years old.

Being a math teacher at a local college, the wife saw this as an opportunity to playfully enlighten her husband. With a touch of humor, she informed him that while he was reading her note, she would be at the Hotel Fiesta with Michael, one of her students and also the assistant tennis coach. Michael, just like his secretary, was a young and energetic 19-year-old.

Using her mathematical skills, the wife playfully pointed out that they were in the same situation, with one small difference. She explained that 19 goes into 57 more times than 57 goes into 19. With a dash of wit, she concluded that she would not be home until sometime the following day.

This delightful exchange between the husband and wife showcases the brilliance and quick thinking of the wife. It reminds us that age is simply a number and that humor can work wonders in resolving any situation. Love and laughter truly know no bounds.
