I don't because I'm not the sentimental type but my mom did keepa handful of baby stuff such as blanket, my baby shirt, etc.

deafskeptic · 05-23-2009, 06:31 PM

I still have most of my stuffed animals in my storage room though I wish I hadn't lost my favorite stuffed bunny.

Moon-child · 05-23-2009, 07:07 PM

Yes, I have kept that little flame in my spirited heart lit, no one and nothing can put it out. That and I have my first teddy bear in storage somewhere and my Holly Hobbie big doll.

Mrs Bucket · 05-23-2009, 07:39 PM

My fiery temper and my stubbornness.

Materials I don't hang on to them but for my temper & my stubborn trait, I'd love to let them go. The stubborn part of me won't let it go!

the need to breast feed

Bottesini · 05-23-2009, 07:44 PM

A garnet ring that a family friend gave me when I was nine years old.

MoonDrifter · 05-23-2009, 08:34 PM

My love for the one I care about the most.

Dixie · 05-23-2009, 09:40 PM

I have a stuffed monkey that was given to me when I ws 18 months old by my now deceased grandfather on my dad's side. I still sleep with it everynight.

Oceanblue7 · 05-23-2009, 09:45 PM

I have few items that I had since , birth and childhood. Since, birth , I have a Winnie-the -Pooh doll, a baby towel and blanket.

zephyr · 05-23-2009, 10:06 PM

I grew up in foster homes - nothing was ever kept - no childhood photos, no special toys, no treasures - EXCEPT one - I don't know how I managed to keep it - but I have a wooden nickle that was given to me when I was five years old. The Queen of England visited London, Ontario in 1955 and wooden nickles were given out - I still have that nickle - 53 years later.

PEACE

KarissaMann05 · 05-23-2009, 10:53 PM

Yes, I do. I kept my old artworks, some stuff in my plastic packet, and a few things I forget.

***Jolie77*** · 05-23-2009, 11:07 PM

Yep, I have a baby-sized hand-sewn quilt made by my grandma.

Hear Again · 05-24-2009, 12:57 AM

I have a variety of things from my childhood. I have the knick knacks my mother kept on a dresser in my nursery, a pair of my baby shoes, a stuffed dog that was given to me by one of the nurses when I was in the hospital for my first eye surgery, a Brailled Speak 'n Spell that my mother bought me for my 11th birthday, a Brailled Rubik's Cube that my mother bought me for Christmas, a wooden breadbox that I made in 7th grade, the 45s I collected from age 11-18, poetry that I wrote from 7th-12th grade and all of my college research papers.

JamieLynn · 05-24-2009, 07:03 AM

My beloved teddybear I once posted pic of

LakeTahoe · 05-24-2009, 07:58 AM

YEP! My baby shoes, but dress was lost.

It's OK.
Also my teddy bears, some dolls, etc...still have them since I was little! I will pass that to my daughter if I am having a girl.

Oh yea...Cabbage Patch dolls as well. Not sure if I still have my care bear or gave it away.

I did kept my son's baby shoes. I showed them to him yesterday. He said "SO WHAT" It is just a baby shoes! I was like geez!

I wish I had some baby clothes too... Unfortunately I don't. I have LOTSA photos though

DeafLissa90 · 05-24-2009, 09:01 AM

My mum has a box full of mine and Jen's baby clothes from scbu and she even has our first certificates for breathing without oxygen and she even has our baby bracelets which she got engraved with our names because we was totally identical as babies. Mine has my first name and my middle name. Its sooo tiny and cutee. She even has our hospital bracelts. Also a video that she filmed of us the first day we was born when we was all still at our home hospital all together

jazzy · 05-24-2009, 11:09 AM

Teddy Bear, my grandma made for me. Quilt spread, my grandma made for me. Big old doll I put in shed, I got it from my other grandparents. I think that is about it.

LOL! You just reminded me....a while back I was digitizing all of my old family photos going back a couple of generations. A friend was here with me. I was scanning a pic of myself standing with my left foot thrust out, and my hands on my hips. This friend reminded me that is the same position I use when I am about to say, "I don't think so!" He said, "I see where it comes from now. You were born with it!"

Mrs Bucket my dear, you are not alone. I was born with a fiery temper myself and when I'm mad, you are best advised to stay out of my way.
