The Shaving of Aslan

"Stop!" said the witch. "Let him first be shaved."

...an ogre with a pair of shears came forward and squatted down by Aslan's great head. Snip, snip, snip went the shears and masses of curling gold began to fall to the ground...You could see the face of Aslan looking all small and different without his mane...

"Why, he's only a great cat after all!"... "Is that what we were afraid of?"

Well...our 'little' girl has turned six. Sad but true. She is quite pleased with herself about the whole matter despite our best efforts to stop time. She did have a very happy little birthday replete with balloons, homemade birthday cake, presents, good food and family.

Thanks Zia Laura for coming to visit us.

For dinner we had homemade mac and cheese with spinach...we didn't want our dearheart to be completely spoiled, birthday or no).

A splendid time was had by all. May God bless you Mimi.
