Once more I am woken from a restless night by my small girl peering intently at my face with a puzzled expression.
Miss M: ”Mummy you look funny.”
Me: ”Do I babe? It’s probably because I didn’t sleep too well and because of my cold.”
Miss M: ”Your eyes are all puffy Mummy.”
Me: Are they?”
Miss M: ”Yes. Is that what happens when faces go wrong?”

My face was wrong too this morning. You know, when you feel like you’ve left your lenses in and then you find you haven’t – it’s just that your eyes are crxp?

Ugh. I know that feeling. I fear my face is wrong at least 50% of the time!!

I am laughing my newly coiffured head off here!
My face is wrong at least 83% of the time.

This reminds me of my sister’s 4-year-old, who expressed concern that when her mummy turned 40, she’d have “an old face”. On the morning of my sister’s birthday, 4-year-old Lexi ran to her mother’s bedside. “Hi Sweetie,” she said, “Did you come to wish Mommy a happy birthday?” “No. I just came to check if your face is old. But it’s not. You’re still young.” And then she ran away, relieved.

My face was very wrong this morning – with a pillow crease mark all down my right cheek!

Ah if it was only down to puggy eyes, my face went wrong a long time ago. I am turning into my mother and tell the boys if the wind changes they face will stay that way!!!

Oh dear, Jo. Will it stay like that?

Catherine, just you wait till your little man finds his voice. If he’s anything like his Mummy he’ll be a wit.
Josie, that’s what I thought when she said it, hee hee.
Potty Mummy, yep. I’ve done that. When you’re feeling around on your eyes determined to find that elusive edge.
Susan yep, mine too. I just wish she wouldn’t keep pointing it out.
Insomniac Mummy I bet it doesn’t. And your new hair is gorgeous.
Charrette, Miss M will be 10 when I turn 40, gulp, so hopefully she will be more subtle??
Web Design, your time will come.
Hilary, mine too. Sighhhhhhh.
Expat Mum, that would do it.
Themadhouse, I am sure you are perfectly lovely.
Rosie I hope not. Wil you let me know on Monday?

Oh, the blunt words of a child, especially your own. Priceless, Jo!

Aaaaargh.
But since we’re on the subject of appearances, I have to confess, I’m struggling a bit with your new layout. I’ll get used to it, but… oh, I’m just so set in my blogging ways. You won’t get rid of the ostrich, will you?
