Do you still have any stuffed animals or stuffed toys or did you do away with those when you were a child? I still have some. I used to have about 50, but I lost most in storage. It's probably better that way, I don't have room for that many now. I also used to give one away every year to Santa as a child. I figured he delivers presents to everyone, he deserves some too.

This is Teddy. I have had him since I was 4ish. A man walked up to me as I was sitting on my front porch and gave him to me. He has some white paint on him, some white on his chin, a missing part of his bow. He is by far my favorite stuffed animal I have ever had. I never travel without him and I never pack him. He stays with me or on top of my bags when I move so I'm sure I never lose him.

These are my kissing bears. They have magnets in their noses.

This one I got from an old war vet when I was very young. He would buy me smarties (Canadian smarties, which are more like M&M's) as long as I gave him the red ones.
