Christmas Town

Cute Hallmark Christmas movie but full of plot holes. There were the issues with the cat and the issues with the angel that others have brought up. But the letters he obviously wrote before he died which means he either KNEW or felt strongly that he was dying. Which begs the question: He obviously spent a lot of time and energy on the letters even ensuring they would all be mailed at the appropriate time. Why didn't he spend any time on making provisions for his daughter so she didn't end up in foster care? My other complaint is about Gloria, the teacher who up and retires. I'm a teacher and I know you don't just make the decision one day. It requires preparation, an application and it can't be both "early " retirement and "it was time." Pick a lane. Oh and the idea of her being approved so quickly to adopt, especially during the holidays when everything slows down with no home visit is simply ludicrous.

One of the best yet of the season. Candace was believable and the story was heartwarming!

Isn't anyone supposed to notice she has a cat that hasn't been fed since she started her trip and has no litter box? 😄😄

The main thought in my mind during this Christmas movie is 1 - who fed the cat 2 - how did it manage staying cooped up in a cage or room without a kitty litter box?

Usual warm hearted Christmas fare

This might possibly be my favorite hallmark Christmas movie to date. Candace Cameron Bure was her usual fabulous self, but what really got to me was the wonderful tale of foster care and adoption that was woven throughout this story. Don't worry there is plenty of Christmas activities and Christmas decorations...and a love story, but what made this "more" besides the well rounded cast creating what felt like honest friendship was the lesson about what makes a family and how important and special that is to a child in the foster care system. (FYI: Candace's hair looked fabulous in this film.) If you want a feel good Christmas movie that might make you cry, but in a good way...this could be the film for you!
