All year, she's been telling people she's turning 47, and it wasn't until shortly before her birthday, that she realized she was only 45 going on 46. She and her husband had a good laugh about it and figured she could just start telling people she was turning 45 and then next year catch back up to 47.
So, the big day came, and her husband baked a cake. After dinner, her family all crowded around to sing happy birthday, and her husband presented his masterpiece. He'd taken the time to put the candles in the shape of her age ... and that's when my sister noticed the cake said 47. She started laughing and reminded her husband that she was only turning 46 this year.
Embarrassed, he took the cake back to the counter to change the offending number.
When the cake came back, this is what my sister saw:
67
Her husband changed the 4 instead of the 7.
Now my sister keeps joking about how good she looks for a 67-year-old woman.

Wow - she must be really secure in her agedness to not even remember how old (or young!) she is. Too funny about aging her even more.
:~D
