Storyline
Shirley Miller is a widow with three children who moves from a big city to small one, and like most widows and displaced individuals, she has a hard time making ends meet and her children are not exactly pleased with their new surroundings. Also accompanying her is her stepson Bill; also like most stepmother/stepson relationships, the two often disagree. But she has help: the housekeeper Charlotte, handyman Dutch, and Lew--a friend who could possibly mean more in her life.
