A slender oak coffin that contains the bodies of a young mother and her infant child are all a young father and his two daughters have left of what was a few hours earlier a happy and normal life. John has to make some drastic decisions about how their lives will continue and a trip to Nashville, Tennessee starts a miracle that is tied to a half-finished hand-made quilt, two scared little grils afraid to love again, and a woman who is determined, through sacrifice, to bring happiness and trust back to this heart-broken family.
