While I strongly believe in love, I always found Valentine's Day to be a foo-foo holiday, one that materialism and marketing play much too big a role. Truth be told, Mike and I celebrate it, but we use it more for a date excuse than anything else. That and I demand a new stuffed animal every year.
It started out with the cheesy gorilla holding heart. Monkey for your love? something like that. I do some heavy tossing and turning, with high kicks, in my sleep. The Gorilla only lasted so long.

Next came a bean-bag style M&M guy. Cute as he may be, you just can't cuddle something stuffed with bean pellets. (Noted?)

Most recently, Dangles, the softest, most cuddly monkey joined the crew. And will never. be. replaced.
For those of you reading carefully: Yes. I do sleep with a stuffed animal.
That share? Is true, deep love.

I've always slept with a stuffed animal too! no shame in that. Except now it's been replaced by a giant body pillow to try and help me sleep during the pregnancy.
ReplyDeletehehe soo cute!! i sleep with a stuffed animal every night too!! :) my fave "kid" is the monkey!!
ReplyDeleteAww.. if I had that monkey I'm sure I'd sleep with a stuffed animal too. I love your stuffed animal tradition though.
ReplyDeleteHappy Valentine's Day!
I have a bear my fiance gave me for Valentines a few years ago... I always sleep with it when I'm staying at the parents' house... It got left there in the move, only the essentials got to come. So until I get a house.... :( But you're not alone! :)
