It's Christmastime, and all young Jesse wants this year is a new father. But while Jesse's mother Sarah knows the importance of having a male role model for her son to look up to, she just can't seem to muster the motivation to start dating again. Reluctantly agreeing to go on a series of dates as part of a nationally publicized contest, Sarah finds herself unexpectedly swept off her feet by the contest's official chaperone. But despite the fact that young Jesse already has his future father picked out, he's going to have to work extra hard to make his Christmas wish come true this year.
