Motherhood. It does your head in.

I was given this beautiful statue at the baby shower I was lucky to have before Mr8 was born (no shower for Mr5 - funny how that happens...). When I got her, she was whole.

This week, she had a run-in with a soccer ball.

Pretty much sums it up, don't you think?

    The woman is missing her head, yet she stays upright, making sure her baby is safe and held securely. Yup, that's about right.

    The poor statue! Funny though. Will you fix it or symbolicly leave her head on the ground?

    Oh dear, this did make me laugh Allison. I often roll my eyes at how unintentionally (and sometimes intentionally) destructive two little boys can be. Case in point with your poor statue xo

    If you put it back on, make it so it can spin, exorcist style. Or is it just me who's had a rough morning?
