Sometimes, I feel like I am too old, too tired or too established to make new friends.

But I know I should. Because my existing friends are either childless, do not live nearby or have much older kids.

How glad I am to be wrong. It is never too late to make other friends.

I am the oldest of my ‘new’ mama friends group, but the only one who really cares about it is me.

So suck it up, Nicole.

I am the hottest, coolest 40-year-old new mom of Charlottenburg.
