Childhood friends in a new set up

In one house two radiant pregnant women and a cool first time mother with a toddler. In the other house three sophisticated women who completed the pregnancy and toddler experience almost a decade ago.

Hundred meters and seven years apart. In one context very close and in another very far away.

Both houses full of drive, ardour and energy.

The fascination of life experience and what it does to a person. Getting married and getting a divorce and somewhere in between getting children. Starting a business and closing it, moving abroad and coming back. Open one door when another door closes. Staying in the room without knowing which door to open next. Facing fear without looking down. Being there. Understanding. Growing.

An evening that left me allured with a new admiration for forty plus something women.
