A very elderly couple is having an elegant dinner to celebrate their 75th wedding anniversary.
The old man leans forward and says softly to his wife, "Dear, there is something that I must ask you. It has always bothered me that our tenth child never quite looked like the rest of our children.
Now I want to assure you that these 75 years have been the most wonderful experience I could have ever hoped for, and your answer cannot take all that away.
But, I must know, did he have a different father?"
The wife drops her head, unable to look her husband in the eye, she pauses for a moment and then confesses. "Yes. Yes, he did."
The old man is very shaken, the reality of what his wife was admitting hit him harder than he had expected.
With a tear in his eye, he asks "Who? Who was he? Who was the father?"
Again the old woman drops her head, saying nothing at first as she tries to muster the courage to tell the truth to her husband.
Then, finally, she says, "You".

HAHAHAHA! Well, one out of ten is better than nothing!
Exactly!
My suspicious nature anticipated that punch line.
I guessing you would never tell either. 😁
Har, de har-har-har!!
Hahahaha! Didn't see that coming!
You've seen this, haven't you! 😁
I'm glad someone was surprised.
Thanks Mike. I actually was surprised by that. A classic, no doubt. Have a wonderful week friend. Aloha
Great joke! Thanks for reminding me of it!
A classic for sure.
Bring it out of retirement.
HA! This was a new one for me.
I'm reminded of a couple I knew years ago when people said only one of their children resembled the father and the wife would say "he's the only one that's his". (All the others looked like their mother.)
Now the hunt for the other nine fathers begins.
She sounds like fun.
