It was only at Christmas that Miranda was plesed tha she and Andrea had opted to keep the townhouse when both of the twins flew the nest and got homes and husbands of their own. For the whole year the two of them rattled around in the huge house and Miranda would find herself feeling almost guilty for keeping so much space for just the two of them but at Christmast almost felt like there wasn't enough room. Caroline, Mark and the three children, Cassidy, Thomas and the twins, Nigel and Doug, AEmily, Serena and their daughter. The whole house felt warm and cozy, filled with the sound of the children playing and laughing. They weren't exactly a traditional family but they were the only true family that Miranda had ever known and even if it meant another ten years rattling arounf in too much space with Andreahe would keep this house just so that every single one of them knew they had somewhere they could come if they needed family.
