The Santa Claus at the mall was very surprised when a young lady about twenty years old walked up and sat on his lap.

Santa doesn’t usually take requests from adults, but she smiled very nicely at him, so he asked her, „What do you want for Christmas?”

„Something for my mother,” said the young lady.

„Something for your mother? Well, that’s very thoughtful of you,” smiled Santa. „What do you want me to bring her?”

Without blinking she replied, „A son-in-law!”
