Synopsis: Charles Legare wakes up after dreaming about the wish he made on a dandelion years ago with Charlotte Smith Legare. Upon waking up, he retrieves a letter that holds a deeper meaning to come. Later that day Charles finds himself at a table set for three. He’s alone for a moment until his son, James Legare and his wife, Mary Legare enter. James reminds his dad of the memories about his mother that were passed down, but instead of hearing them, Charles relieves them for a brief moment in time. As each flashback occurs Charles begins to realize that his life is parallel to James’. He reminds his son to cherish loved ones and to hold on to each memory because life has a purpose and each memory has a message.
