Through this video, I just wanna say thank you for all the moms.. for everything that you have done and all of the sacrifices that you make for us.. Thank you for your love and support that we can be who we are today..

The Chronicle of Narnia

When the other children woke up next morning (they had been sleeping on piles of cushions in the pavilion) the first thing they heard -from Mrs Beaver - was that their brother had been rescued and brought into camp late last night; and was at that moment with Aslan. As soon as they had breakfasted, they all went out, and there they saw Aslan and Edmund walking together in the dewy grass, apart from the rest of the court. There is no need to tell you (and no one ever heard) what Aslan was saying, but it was a conversation which Edmund never forgot. As the others drew nearer Aslan turned to meet them, bringing Edmund with him.

 "Here is your brother," he said, "and - there is no need to talk to him about what is past."
