[gentle music] When we left our girls, they were eight and nine years old, just babies, unaware of how fast time was pulling them forward. The years passed the way they always do, steadily, without asking permission, filled with school days, sleepovers, shared secrets, and whispered dreams between girls who didn't yet understand how quickly a childhood ends. By the late 1960s, their world was widening.
