It’s
supposed to be the most wonderful time of the year, but Leyland Scott is down
in the dumps. It’s his first Christmas since losing his mom, it’s possible his
job of over twenty years is about to be axed, and he just can’t find it in
himself to care about anything really. Except for one thing—Lynette who works
at the coffee shop. She’s the only bright spot in his day.
Lynette is
fairly new in town, having made the move to the big city a few months ago to
find herself. She’s struggling to make ends meet but she’s determined to prove
she can make it. During that short time, she’s become interested in Leyland, who
frequents the coffee shop. And when he finally asks her out, she’s skeptical at
first but agrees, only to discover she’s happy she did.
The two
have a common concern when they hear the wildly enthusiastic, if a bit (all
right, a lot) out of tune Christmas carols being belted out by an underdressed
kid wearing angel wings and no shoes. It’s freezing outside, with snow covering
the ground, but the boy appears unfazed and continues merrily singing his heart
out in front of passersby. No one knows who the kid is, but Harold, as they end
up naming him, seems to know them all.
Normally
not a religious man, Leyland has a change in spirit. The angel boy seems to
deliver a message, letting him know this is his opportunity for a fresh start.
He’s told when one door closes, another door opens. Perhaps God, with the help
of Harold, has opened that door. If that’s true, Leyland is ready to go through
it with Lynette.
It’s the
most wonderful time of the year. Maybe it’s also time for a new beginning for
them both.
