Maybe you had to be there

The day after I came home from the hospital, I was sitting on the couch feeding Robyn, when I looked to my left and saw this scene, on the top of one of our low bookshelves:



I burst out laughing. Maybe it was the hormones, or maybe it's just my odd sense of humor, but I found the scene hilarious. Here are all these beautiful tokens on womanhood -- pregnancy, carrying an infant, comforting a toddler, and suddenly...UDDER! Somehow I don't think it would have been as funny to me if the cow was facing forward. The rear-facing stance is much more flamboyant, and I just thought it was hilarious.

But maybe you had to be there.

That is awesome!
Too bad they don't make a Willow Tree figurine where the woman is nursing, then you wouldn't need the cow!

I totally started laughing when I saw the picture before I read what you wrote! That is awesome! You know, we could always get you a nursing cover made out of cow print fabric ;)!
