What would you say in this situation?
I have gray hair and sometimes people mistake me for my kids' grandfather. What clever thing can I say in response?

Do's and Don'ts:

The words above (adapted for the gender of the situation) were what I said when a museum guard said "She's adorable, is she your granddaughter?" My kids were glad I didn't throw a fit or embarrass them.

Then I went out and got an eyelift.

Say This:

You are correct, I am old enough to be her grandfather but in fact I am lucky enough to be her father.
