Summary

Shoes is an inspirational story about Carla, a young woman who becomes a single parent when her husband walks out on her after their baby is born, then battles bouts of depression while trying to give her daughter the life she deserves.

Three years later Vince decides he wants his daughter for the day to celebrate her third birthday that, like her other birthdays, he missed. Carla has reservations, but wanting Megan to know her father, she allows Vince to take Megan home.

He locks Megan inside a large dog crate, ignoring the child all day, then takes off to the bar with friends. When time comes to take Megan home, he is drunk and has an auto accident. Megan survives, but she now walks with a significant limp and her learning abilities are slower.

At six years old, possessing wisdom beyond her years, Megan surprises her mother time and again by her logic, and her determination to not let her disability get her down.

Learning from her daughter, Carla once again believes love does exist.

With Megan playing matchmaker, Carla finds true love with her daughter's doctor, a man who knows discrimination.

Megan keeps the family strong, continuing to teach her mother and new father valuable life lessons.
