When he discovered his first grey hair he immediately wrote to his
parents:

"Dear Mum and Dad, You saw my first steps. You might want to experience
this with me too."

He then taped the offending hair to the paper and mailed it.

His father's response was in the form of a poem:

It's a trustworthy observation
That nothing can compare
In the process of aging
With finding the first grey hair.

and signed off with this observation:
"That grey hair you sent is not the first one you gave us!"
