Hold on to the ones that understand and help you through grieving. If you are able to build a new life with them all the better.

I've seen this movie twice and I loved it both times. It's Lacey Chabert who I adore on the Hallmark Channels for sure. She's very cute and charming. This reminded me of a movie similar to a TV Series I grew up watching, called 'The Brady Bunch', minus one child. I even said that the first time I watched this movie and prior to hearing Lacey say it on this movie. It was like Deja Vu. I love the kid dynamic in this movie though because all the kids seem to adjust and adapt very well to a coming together. There is even a very cool song that plays while they are either getting ready to eat dinner or cleaning up after the dinner. I'll have to look up the song that played. It was great teamwork and that's what we should all strive for in our lives, working together on a common goal. But seriously, watch this movie and remember The Brady Bunch.

This was a real emotional roller coaster, filled with so many hard life lessons...like why do other people always think they know what's best for you? And why do others have trouble watching people be happy.

This was based on a true life Brady bunch like story.

It was beautiful to watch these two grieving families come together and support one another. I appreciated without any outside influences, that the family together was happy.

I wish they'd air it more. Watching it tonight - haven't seen it for a couple of years. It's a good family movie. It studies how people can help each other in sad circumstances. How kiss can help each other heal. The camaraderie...

In circumstances that involve death, people come together and find some peace - while still remembering the ones gone.

Such a touching movie...

7.9 stars.

It's a fairy tale. A family of five loses a mother. A family of four loses a father. The two families meet while in the throes of grief and loss. And like a fairytale Brady Bunch story formed in the midst of a church setting, where she works at the Christian school and his profession is... not sure what he does actually...it provides reassurance that luck (miracles) can penetrate a gloomy existence.

As their families grow closer, all the people around them start to fear the worst. Those dumb people -"friends" and family begin to interfere with what appears to be a wondrous and beautiful miracle of a relationship, where two grieving families begin to mend.

In so many ways, this could happen, in many more ways it is unlikely. Much about this beautiful story just doesn't match reality. Nevertheless, I really enjoyed this film. Like I said, it's a real life fairytale. Enjoy it for what it represents, and the potential happy ending it offers those in a similar situation: two charismatic and gorgeous widows with no flaws and five perfectly adjusted children...
