Theresa

When Theresa Sanders finds newborn twins abandoned on the steps of the schoolhouse, she begs her adoptive parents, Edna Petunia and Cletus, to give them a home. She agrees that all their care will be provided by her, but nurturing the twins night and day quickly turns into far more work than she can handle, even with help from her family. She loves them immediately and can’t bear the idea of losing them, though her parents think it’s time for her to find them more permanent homes.

Cody Witherspoon is a traveling insurance man who never expected to come away from a sales visit with a wife. When he meets Theresa, he proposes on the spot, and Theresa’s just sleep-deprived enough to accept—until Edna Petunia and Cletus intervene. They don’t approve of a stranger marrying their daughter, and they believe Cody should move on to the next town. Will Cody and Theresa convince the Sanders family that the love they have is true? Or will Cody pack up and ride off into the sunset, leaving Theresa lonely and overwhelmed?
