Synopsis:

Mildred is a widow who discovers a whole new world when her grown children move away. Monica, Mildred's troubled next-door neighbor, leaves her young son J.J. with Mildred while she works a split shift. A friendship develops between Mildred and the six-year-old that opens her eyes to things she never knew existed. Suddenly, she's able to explore life, including a shy courtship with Tommy, the truck driver, who assists Mildred's transition when J.J. no longer needs her.
