Day 9: Trying Something New

For today's blog I am trying something new. A movie review, yes that is right I will be giving my input on a movie I saw this morning. I do apologize if this is not very good, I don't do this but Kate thought it would be a good idea.... (why Kate?)

Here it goes, the movie I saw this morning was called "A Christmas Wish" it is a Hallmark Movie Channel Movie. I know what people might think, but I enjoy those cheesy, romantic holiday movies although this was not one of them. This movie is about a step mother who's husband has deserted her with her two daughters and stepson, with no money, homeless, and all alone. She moves to a rural town and with the little money she has gets a motel to stay. She finds a job working night shifts in the small town diner which used to be famous for it's homemade root beers. The whole town pitches in and tries to get her a car and see if someone in town will rent out a house to her. (heart warming)A kind teenager watches the children for $8 a week and one night tells the kids a Christmas story. Now this is where it got very interesting. Going into this movie you would have never suspected it having a Christian edge to it, but it does in a way and this is one of the many reasons why I loved it. After the babysitter's story the older daughter draws a tree on the wall of their room and encourages her step-brother to believe and God. Particularly in one part the boy's biological father comes back and takes the boy away saddened the mother walks along the town thinking about the boy and how everything has been and eventually comes up to a gazebo decorated for Christmas which she falls down on her knees crying to God asking to keep her step-son because she cares about him and loves him. As she is walking back to her motel room she finds her step son, this really got the tears a rollin'. 

All in all this movie was grand. Totally would recommend it. Don't hate Hallmark Channel, give it a chance you might come across a good holiday movie like this one. I hope you enjoyed my movie review, I hope you could understand it haha

Til Next Time!

This was the best picture I could get, doesn't it look interesting?
