I used to have a small flannellette pillow I always put on top of my regular pillow. It wasn't emotionally attached to it really, but I did take it with me when I stayed at my dad's place.
Because it was made of such a flimsy material it would frequently get holes and had to be sewed up by my mother every couple of months. Eventually she just threw it out one day. I was kind of upset when she admitted it (claiming it was too old to keep fixing and I would just have to live without it), but I got over it in about five minutes.
I think she was either tired of fixing it, or was worried I would become dependent on it if she let me keep it. I approve of her decision.

That is horrifying, in every conceivable way. Where can I get one, and how well does it work as a hat?AccursedTheory said:
So... much... nostalgia...
God dammit, I want my cuddly toys (Never called them soft toys as a child) back. I don't care that I'm 20! I remember sleeping better with them by my side anyway.
Still had them all until I was about 12, too...
I have a stuffed puppet/dog named Wrinkles. Also another stuffed dog named Shep. Those were the ones that I've held onto since I was a baby. They always get a place of honor in my room.
@fargodog: No, you really don't need to grow up. Some things are meant to be held onto, in my opinion.

It was a dog called Jesse. She had a black patch over one eye and collar. She was my best friend for years. Don't remember what happened to her. She was the best.
When I was very young, I had a complete set of three-foot, five-pound Winnie the Pooh characters. My father and I would often take one or two--I was always fond of Rabbit, and he of Tigger--and proceed to brutally and unrelentingly beat the tar out of one another in a sport which we entitled "The Hundred-Acre Wood Smackdown". The memory of still brings a rush of emotions and nostalgia...good times, good times.
My uncle gave me a teddy bear on the day I was born. The fur on his belly is very flattened now because I used him as a pillow at least until I was thirteen. He never had a name because I was too young to give him one when I got him. Tartan bow tie 
I have a teddy bear, he doesn't have a name but the story of how i got him is interesting and goes as follows, one sunny day i was walking with my grandma from the park (I was like 3) and i was crying because i wanted an ice cream and she didn't buy me one, while i was walking and crying (Something i still continue to do to this day) my grandma bumped into a friend of her's who happened to be with her 9 or 10 year old daughter, the daughter saw me crying and gave me a little orange green and white teddy bear to cheer me up. A rather intresting story, just felt i'd share it
Yes, a little green bear with a hat I named Marlon. I had a lot of stuffed animals when I saw little. Most of them are lost or destroyed, but I still have Marlon. I actually dug him out of a bin and put him on my desk because of this thread. It brought back some pleasant memories.
I also had a big green dog I won at an arcade. I still have him to. He's just in my closet now, sitting on top of the box I keep spare computer parts in. I used to really like green. It was my favorite color, though at some point I started to favor orange over it.
Other than those 2, the only notable one was the little octopus named Inky. I lost him though

Thats the actual hat model. Its sold out right now, so give it a week or too.
I turn 20 in less than a month, and I still have all of mine. Granted, my mom just hasn't found anyone to give them to.FargoDog said:
