The BAH “kids” gathered around the dining room table, to discuss the future of their childhood home.

"This house is getting to be too much for me to maintain," Lola said. "Especially now that Ashton is about to leave the nest."

Cameron nodded in agreement. "We're thinking of getting a small place in Mt. Komorebi. We always loved it there."

"Our kids are grown, too," Keone said. "And we're really happy in Sulani."

"I've been thinking about this a lot," Lola said. "And even though our mom was the one who made this place into a home, she originally intended it for Soraia's dad. And since you still have younger kids..."

"Are you sure?" Soraia asked, thinking about their tiny house in Del Sol Valley. It was a lot asking their teenage daughter to share a bedroom with her younger brother. Harper needed some privacy and the Big Ass House had privacy in spades.

"I'm sure," Lola said, smiling across the table at Cameron.

"Zhafira and I are sure, too," Keone said. "I think CJ Fontaine would like that, don't you?"

Soraia nodded with tears in her eyes. She never really knew her dad, but she loved that her siblings made sure he was never forgotten. "I love you guys so much. Thank you."

SWIMMING WITH MY KOA

MY KOA

Soraia: I feel like I've kind of outgrown calling you My Koa.

Makoa: Yeah, you're probably right.

.

Soraia: I was thinking maybe I could just call you Dad.

Makoa: Are you sure?

.

Soraia: CJ Fontaine will always be my father, but you've been my dad in all the ways that matter.

HAPPY HOLIDAYS FROM THE FONTAINE-WELLS FAMILY!

DADDY

Soraia: Mama? What happened to my daddy?

.

Eliana: Do you know how it feels when you‘re worried about something? How you feel all knotted up in your belly?

Soraia: Yes.

Eliana: Your daddy felt like that all the time.

.

Eliana: And one day that feeling got too big and his heart just stopped working.

Soraia: Could that happen to you? Or My Koa?

Eliana: Probably not. Everyone is made differently and I only feel like that once in a while.

.

Soraia: Mama, do you think I was made like my daddy?

Eliana: I don‘t think so, but if you ever feel more a little bit worried, you tell me and we‘ll handle it together.
