One of the best ways to restore sanity while raising a toddler is to steal his toys and play with them. I recommend buying earplugs so that you can ignore the screams of "mine! mine! mine" when he sees you playing with his stuff.
These Bristle Blocks Acrobats are great fun but you have to keep them out of your two-year-old's reach or he'll tear them a apart. This sculpture was placed on top of a tall bookshelf, well out of reach of the little tike.
Bristle Block Momma with her two babies and upside-down husband portrays the struggle of motherhood and marriage: she does this with great skill and beauty. Note: her flowering breasts and the three hands - two outstretched in both strength and love, and the third reaching forward into the future. All this she accomplishes while carrying for her children and supporting her useless husband, who spends his day writing on blogs.
By the way, this also demonstrates how you can take a silly "sculpting" project and write about it "intellectually" to make it look like great thought went into it.

I think perhaps the artist is trying to convey a subconscious longing for another infant to grace his home.
Uh, no. That would be Mrs Zzyzx. And trust me, there's nothing subconscious about it.
no one knows your subconscious mind better than your wife dear. the message has been deciphered and duly noted.
I could hardly stop laughing! I REALLY need to see where this discussion ends up some day! :)
Mrs Zzyzx - Did you finally watch Inception without telling me? I'm starting to worry about the security of my subconscious now.
OOOPS! I have become inserted into this discussion unintentionally! I am NOT Mrs ZZYX, I am a tenent in the office next to Mr. ZZYX!
No problem - my last comment was directed to the "anonymous" comment just above yours. Mr Zzyzx can recognize Mrs Zzyzx even when she is posting "anonymously". You know, it is kind of like textual criticism!
