another name

If you couldn't tell: the snow makes me want to write.

I have also been reading, Betty Smith and Don Piper, but here is one quoteworthy:

"Come and have breakfast." said the Lamb in its sweet milky voice.

Then they noticed for the first time that there was a fire lit on the grass and fish roasting on it. They sat down and ate the fish, hungry now for the first time for many days. And it was the most delicious food they had ever tasted.

...

"Please, Aslan," said Lucy. "Before we go, will you tell us when we can come back to Narnia again? Please. And oh, do, do, do make it soon."

"Dearest," said Aslan very gently, "you and your brother will never come back to Narnia."

"Oh, Aslan!" said Edmund and Lucy both together in despairing voices.

"You are too old, children," said Aslan, "and you must begin to come close to your own world now."

"It isn't Narnia, you know," sobbed Lucy. "It's you. We shan't meet you there. And how can we live, never meeting you?"

"But you shall meet me, dear one," said Aslan.

"Are--are you there too, Sir?" said Edmund.

"I am," said Aslan. "But there I have another name. You must learn to know me by that name. This was the very reason why you were brought to Narnia, that by knowing me here for a little, you may know me better there."

Remodeling update: I was finally able to paint my in-laws' dining room walls today! Kitchen is still in progress, but a new stove is going to be delivered sometime this week. Brett had to work Saturday, and is at work now (Sunday), but then the plant won't have much to do for a few weeks, so he has to bank hours while he can (it'd be lovely if he got our anniversary off... *smile*). I am holding on to hope that I get to paint the kitchen before Christmas!
