Juana was already envisioning holiday celebrations at their Maui home. The whole family would love this place, and the grandkids could learn to swim, snorkel and so many other things. They would be creating beautiful experiences together. “Maui?” asked daughter Leila. “It’s so far away – and pretty expensive to fly there. What a lovely idea.
