He Asked His Wife a Romantic Question
With his hands on his back concealing an envelope, the grandfather asked her if she would be his valentine, and her response was priceless. "What do you think?" she asked him, and he comically replied that she had no choice in the matter.
At this point, the proud wife put her hands on her husband's face and said, "I've been your valentine for 64 years." She kissed him and was surprised when he presented her with the red envelope he was holding.
The elderly man had one final compliment for his beloved lady and wooed her with a sentence many might think was reserved for teenagers.
