    Gavin and Danny Berger are a married couple and want to either foster or adopt a child. When a toddler named Eric is brought to their house to meet them, they instantly fall in love with him. It starts out with them being Foster parents, but eventually they’re able to adopt him. His parents relinquish their parental rights because they’re in prison and he’d be a grown man by the time they got out.
