IN their last few hours in Israel, before embarking on a lengthy sojourn that would take them halfway around the globe—and ultimately home in Australia—Sima and Kouhyar snuggled with Ailsa Hedley and me, savoring moments of silence so unusual for the four of us together. Even such quiet moments with the Rowshans are exhilarating: their natural gifts of curiosity, humor, and energy get automatically unwrapped in every occasion, whether Sima serves in a task force or cooks an impromptu meal or Kouhyar troubleshoots a computer hardware issue or goofs on others
à la Mike Meyers in Austin Powers.
Big frames, big brains, big smiles, big hearts. Imagine what the Rowshan children will be.
