As Oldest Daughter prepares to return to college this week, I am feeling the weight of this Arabic proverb:
اولادنا اکبدنا ماشیین علی الارض
Awladuna akbaduna mashyeen 'ala al'ard.
Our children are our hearts walking around outside of us.
(literally: Our children are our livers walking on the earth.)
