****A Christmas Note (2015)
Gretchen (Jamie Lynn-Sigler) moves to a new neighborhood while her injured husband recuperates abroad from war-related injuries. She is called upon to inform her somewhat reclusive neighbor that the neighbor’s mother has passed away. The neighbor, Melissa (Leah Gibson) and her mother had been estranged for many years. She did not even know she her mother lived in the same community. In retrieving her mother’s possession she receives a note from her mother indicating there was a sibling who was given up for adoption.

This movie leaves you feeling good.

**^Christmas in the Air: This is a single man (Eric Close), who is owner with his brother of a toy making company. However he finds it hard to balance his work and the lives of his children. This is even more intense when he is roped into hosting a potential buyer. He recruits a professional organizer (Catherine Bell) to help. Of course they slowly develop a relationship. My issue being a social worker has to do with the ethics of falling for a client. Perhaps organizers have different standards. Hallmark Movie.
