I love the interactions between mothers and their children. I miss my own who are now adults leading interesting lives abroad.

- I came to Egypt as the wife of an Egyptian/Canadian businessman and the mother of our children in the late 80's. My husband is no longer with us, the children are pursuing careers abroad, but Egypt is still my home, albeit, a rural rather than urban one. You can reach me at msgabbani at gmail.com

Great photo that says a lot.
A beautiful picture
So touching. It is always interesting to see the mother daughter shots where the daughter is not yet covering her head. At what age does that happen? The ceremony must be elaborate.
It isn't a ceremonial thing. Girls often choose to wear a scarf at about twelve or fourteen or so, sometimes younger, pretty much on their own. In some cases there might be some peer or family pressure to wear it at a certain age. It's very individual.
A very cute moment captured very nicely.
