I remember one Christmas when my entire family gathered around the living room, everyone ready for gifts and hot cocoa. My uncle stood up and announced he had something even better. He had Christmas dad jokes. He started reading them out loud with complete confidence, as if he was a stand up an on television.
We laughed until we could not breathe and it instantly became my favorite holiday memory. Christmas dad jokes bring the festive spirit in a way gifts never could. It is time to continue that tradition.
