Winter), and we brought him out of the front bedroom, putting him on the rug before the fireplace. For the first time he became one of us.
As long as he lay all the time in bed, we called him William Armstrong, even though it was
formal and sounded as if we were referring to one of our ancestors, but with his creeping
around on the deerskin rug and beginning to talk, something had to be done about his name. It
was I who renamed him. When he crawled, he crawled backwards, as if he were in reverse
and couldn't change gears. If you called him, he'd turn around as if he were going in the other
