I'm a Mom still trying to get into the Christmas Spirit.

OK...I got the Christmas version of Getting to Know you in an email from Katie. (I figure by now, you all know I have a friend named Katie, most of you guys are either a)related to her b)know her from her old work, or Bob's work c)her neighbor or d) in MOMS Club with us, so I am not going to put "my friend Katie" as a introduction when I talk about her anymore.) I decided to give you all my answers here, as an attempt to put myself in the Christmas Spirit. Here it goes! Welcome to the Christmas edition of getting to know your friends. Okay, here's what you're supposed to do, and try not to be a SCROOGE!!! Just copy (not forward) this entire email and paste into a new e-mail that you can send.
