A Christmas Miracle

I can't say how lucky it was that I found the Thornbys. They turned out to be incredibly gracious hosts to Roscoe, and provided him with what I imagine to be his best Christmas in years. Roscoe, of course, is doing his best to be aloof and distant about it, as always, but he came home looking at least three years younger and yelled a lot more politely when I came to see him the next day.

The fire really wasn't such a problem; the Thornbys were fully insured and are using it as an opportunity to add that third bedroom they've always wanted. And the kids are already asking when their "Uncle Woscoe" is coming to visit again.
