“My aunt has a wicked sense of humor and always sends me funny Christmas messages. Last year her message read, ‘I bet with your kids running around, it sounds like Jingle Bells, not a lot of Silent Nights.’ Another one she sent me was, ‘The drummer boy brought the worst gift ever. Who brings a drum kit to a baby shower, have you ever met a newborn?’”
