(2) 4-6 Victor Espada and his three daughters stay for a week with Miguel, his sister Juanita, Mami, and Tía Lola. Victor, who helped Tía Lola with immigration problems, has become more than just a friend to Mami. Children of divorce will be inspired by this loving and respectful new family configuration, and they'll wish they had a Tía Lola to shepherd the process.
