Spring Forward, Mrs. James‪!‬

The creator of Slinky, Dick James, was an engineer who took a mistake in his work place and saw the potential to make a mark on the world, and increase his fame and fortune. But he sacrificed and gave up his family and even his creation to chase after mere vapors of what he thought he wanted. He leaves Betty, his children, and the company in shambles with a load of debt. Betty, whose own background was lonely and left her desperate for love, rises to the occasion and pulls the family and the company out of the dark place they were left and they all find a better future. And, even notoriety. Betty even discovers love that is well beyond what she could imagine – in the people and family who surround her.
