I remember staying home sick from scchool one day and it was an after school spcial type show. I think it was ABC possibly NBC but it wasn’t CBS. It was about a group of kids with no parents I think they died and the older sister was trying to find a place for them to live. One of the younger sisters drew a picture of a house and they found the house and moved in. I do remember one of the scenes was passing a motel called MOON MOTEL. I hope this is enough to jog memories ---

I think it might have been [The Beniker Gang](http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0088787/combined). ---
