It's a Not-So Wonderful Life

Synopsis
Kaylie has a lot to be thankful for this Christmas; She has two loving aunts who take great care of her and they are all living under one roof with Kaylie's grandfather, Gordon. However, when Kaylie is asleep, she sees her late mother, Kelsey and begins dreaming about what life would be like if Kelsey hadn't died in a car crash. Lucy is still teaching 3rd grade, but is living back in her old apartment, alone and single. Maya is still hairdressing and she is also living in her old apartment. Like Lucy, she is alone and single. Kaylie realizes that in her dreams, she is in an alternate universe where her mother is alive and they are living together with Kaylie's stepfather and a dog. However, Kaylie's aunts are estranged from one another. When Kaylie is an adult, it is learned that Lucy and Maya remained estranged. Kelsey explains that if she hadn't died in a car crash and left guardianship of Kaylie to Lucy and Maya, the girls would still be estranged. Kelsey's death and leaving Kaylie in her younger sisters' care was what brought the two together.
