I know I've seen a joke about a man being granted the wish of living his wife's life for a day ....with the punchline at the end "well, last night you became pregnant!" - does anyone have this anywhere on their computer, please???
Thank you!
Sick and tired of going to work every day while his wife stayed home, a man wanted her to see what he went through, so he prayed:
"Dear Lord,
Every day I go to work and put in eight hours while my wife merely stays at home.
I would like her to know what I go through, so please allow her body to switch with mine for a day. Amen."
God, in His infinite wisdom, granted the man's wish.
The following morning, sure enough, the man awoke as a woman. He got out of bed, cooked breakfast for his wife, woke the children up, set out their school clothes, fed them breakfast, packed their lunches, drove them to school, came home and picked up the dry cleaning, took it to the cleaners, stopped at the bank to make a deposit, did the grocery shopping, then drove home to put the groceries away, pay bills, and balance the checkbook.
In all, he did about a million errands throughout the day.
By 9PM, he was exhausted. Although his daily chores weren't finished, he went to bed where he was asked to make love. As worn out as he was, he obliged and got through it without complaining.
When he awoke the next morning, he immediately knelt by the bed and prayed:
"Lord,
I don't know what I was thinking. I was so wrong to envy my wife being able to stay home all day. Please, please, let us trade back. Amen."
The Lord, in His infinite wisdom, replied:
"My son,
I see you have learned your lesson. You will have to wait nine months, though. Last night, you got pregnant."
