I've lost the My Documents shortcut, how do I get it back?

It only works of the 'show my documents' is there.

On my xp setup...it aint.

All I did was inadvertainly delete the my document folder on the desktop.
ALl other indications of it being around is there.
Ie; the location, the start menu ..etc.

Currently using a shortcut I created to work.
But am wanting to see the fix that brings back it as is, (Relizing that it really is a kind of a shortcut I assume)?
