Eve, significantly older than both Jennifer and Julian, was a mother to three grown daughters and a doting grandmother. Her wealth of parenting experience was a fountain of wisdom for the couple. Having a knowledgeable guide with ready answers to their numerous queries as new parents living just next door was comforting. Eve had always been a wonderful neighbor, but ever since she learned about their first baby, their bond had strengthened.
Eve quickly grabbed the phone after it only rang once. You could tell she was eager because of how fast she answered. Jennifer knew that Eve, always seeking a bit of excitement, didn’t hesitate when she heard the news. Without wasting a moment, she gathered her belongings, prepared to accompany the couple to the hospital.
