    Precious object as a child?

    Did anyone have a "precious" object as a child? Like a stuffed animal, a specific article of clothing, a certain toy, or a tape/video?

    I had a Care Bear (Tendeheart Bear) that I would never let go of, and I could never be able to go asleep without listening to my Mini-n-Me sing-along tape.

    I had this blanket. My great grandma had made it for me before I was born. It was pink, and was really a beautiful quilt that I used to lay on as an infant. I drooled on it so much, and I'm sure I had accidents on it as a kid, that it smelled bad and had stain marks. My parents started calling it the stinky, and wanted to throw it away when I was 5 or 6 years old. My sister then was about 2 years old, and I thought I would give it to her, so that my parents wouldn't throw it away. Well, then my sister got attached to it. She started to sleep with it for years. I think it was finally throw on when my sister was about 8 or so.

    Great. Now I'm sad 'cause my blanket's gone, and I'm missing my great grandma. THanks a lot!

    I remember my brother had a beach towel that he used as a cape. I think my mom still has it because we have some many pictures of him as a kid with this towel around his neck.

    I had a babydoll that I carried around, her name was Baby Erica, and even when I didn't have her with me I still pretended I did (or so my parents say), like I guess one time they said we were at the grocery store, and I didn't have her but I acted like I did, told my dad that I dropped her out of the cart, so he had to pretend to pick up this doll, and people were giving him wierd looks

    When my sister was born, My mom didn't want me to feel left out at all the attention she was getting, So she bought me a baby doll and told me that it was my very own baby she brought home from the hospital and it was my responsibility to take care of her. I named her " Baby Sara ", Which is my sisters name. I still do have the doll till this day.
    Do you have the compassion gene ?

    Bells of all kinds, matter a fact i still have them all i believe. Most of them are antique, and probably worth some hefty money if they have any history behind them.

    ....im getting a thought here...haha

    I had a doll that I named "Baby Bobby" that my mom got for me as an infant before she passed away. I wouldn't sleep, eat or go anywhere without it. I still have it to this day although it needs some maintenance like restitching of the shit along the top of his head and needs to be cleaned.

    I used to play in the dirt with sticks and water.

    The sticks broke and the water dried up. I'm not left with nothing.

    I had a stingray egg that I liked to carry around. It stank like hell, my mom threw it away, just like my pet man-o-war. I had a pet pulmonated fish that liked to walk around the livingroom on hot days. He disappeared, my grandpa's dog ate it or it just runned away! (QUITE POSSIBLE, Believe me.) I had this really small airplane. It got shafted (in the elevator shaft.) I still have a ton of childhood stuff (Some the weirdest things ever, like the broken blade of a Boing turbine, etc... ) in a box under my bed. they all mean a lot to me, like my skeleton warrior figures.

    There is one really meaningful. It's this stuffed Orca Wale that my uncle got it to me when I was what? 2? I still have it.

    My G.I Joe collection and Hot Wheels collection were my prized possessions as a child. I still collect hot wheels, 27 years worth so far and the gi joes went to my neighbors kid( every single 5" tall gi joe and accessory ever made I had including that 7' long aircraft carrier from the mid 80's)

    I was never strongly attatched to any one particular thing for very long, but my GI Joes, Ninja Turtles, and Ghostbusters toys were definately the coolest/most fun back when I was younger.
