When a baby boy shows up on their doorstep days before Christmas with a note written specially for them, Erin (Liebert) and Kelly (Barrell) must learn how to navigate their new relationship and career dynamics while unexpectedly caring for a newborn. As the couple spends more time with the baby as a temporary solution until he can be placed permanently or they can find his mother, they begin to realize that they want to adopt him themselves and go about navigating the complicated world of fostering to adopt all while their business is booming at the busiest time of the year, Christmas. Starring Ali Liebert, Katherine Barrell and Barbara Niven.

This is one of those movies that is a balm for the soul. I was smiling the whole time, except when I was crying, of course. And the baby, oh wow, they cast the cutest baby actor I’ve ever seen. The Gerber baby has nothing on this kid. This is a lovely movie where good people face their fears and lead with love, and it’s a shame that some viewers are going to skip this movie because it’s about a same sex couple. I can’t think of a better film to exemplify the Christmas season.
Favorite Quote: He was healthy, well-cared for, someone loved him… loves him. They were overwhelmed and they made a desperate choice. When this person tried to think of a safe and loving home for their child, they pictured Kelly and I, and it’s humbling.

Favorite Kiss: So many beautiful moments between Erin and Kelly, but the happiness in the final kiss in front of the tree is just perfect and I loved the song playing in the background too.
