Calvin is in foster care, and he wants to trust someone, anyone, but is afraid to open his heart. He has lived in a lot of houses, but he still hasn amp rsquo t found his home. When he moves in with Maggie, she shows him respect, offers him kindness, and makes him see things in himself that he amp rsquo s never noticed before. Maybe this isn amp rsquo t just another house, maybe this is a place Calvin can call home, for a while.
