WIFE GRACE LEE
Age 39, a medical technician; mom of two with another on the way (actually, she’s about to find out they’re having twins): a social media-savvy soccer mom with a good sense of humor.
DAUGHTER AMY Lee
Age 12, smart, precocious, little kid/big personality —a little bit “Young Sheldon,” a little bit “Modern Family” with a twist of “Wonder Years”: Amy is ‘the glue’ of our show and has to be able to carry a lot of narration
SON ERIC LEE

CORE CLIENT: THE MILLERS (Mid 40s to mid 50s homeowners)
JENNIFER MILLER
Age 16: first time driver, sings in a local rock band; strong willed, opinionated, the youngest child who will definitely forge her own path — this character must sing.
NICK
Age 17, Jennifer’s boyfriend, the leader of the local rock band —he’s definitely got the rock star cool factor, without the edge: a Midwestern boy who respects his elders. Sings country/pop and plays acoustic guitar. Basic or better acoustic guitar skills a plus!

SALLY BARTON
Age early 30s, daughter of multi-gen farmer. Sally comes from a farming family but she’s part of a new breed of farmer driving the ‘farm to table’ initiative. She’s the owner of a commercial agribusiness called Honey Hogs. She’s a strong, hands-on and resourceful woman.
