That's one thing I'd never toss. Little junkie toys that they don't play with sure but stuffed dolls and animals are different. There was head lice going around school and my daughter got it. We did all the treatments and thankfully only found 1. I washed all the stuffed stuff.
What are you calling junkie toys? :p

I have to compile a list for you. I'm tempted to toss the Pokémon cards. I slipped on a bunch last night , my kid's have a container for them. I truly have a hate for Lego's and I can say I'm super happy they've never gotten a Furby. They're creepy!

I had a stuffed monkey I called Mr. Monkey. If a stuffed animal would have been made to look like me, I guess just make a stuffed bulldog.
My oldest brother got a stuffed bulldog, because he was that kid. lol

Although I'm not sure how the stuffed animals enjoy this advice, if you put them in the freezer for a couple of days, it kills off all bugs, (including dust mites), and most bacteria and germs.

Barbie shoes, wayward Legos, Monopoly game pieces, screws from the Erector Set, and anything else stepped on with bare feet. :p

Teddy was very handsome when my mom first knitted him, and he had a very dashing suit on. :) However over the last 45 years, Teddy got raggedy and torn, so I buried him with Tequila, back in March. It seemed fitting that my two best friends exit this world together and are together for eternity. I'm sure that there is a heaven for teddy bears.. lol

Mine would have been moody and shy. It would have been the shortest in its class, and the precocious people pleaser.

'people pleasers' are few and far in-between, I should know, before I was called and began to grow -
that was my un-fortunate goal in life, to please 'man' instead of my Lord and Saviour, Jesus Christ...

I meant those kids who are always anxious to please adults, to be good students and children. I think many oldest children are like this.

Maybe about a ton of messy, windblown blonde hair? :D

Mine would be tall, lanky, dirty, and covered in scars or band aids.

Yeah, I think I was one of those. Not a perfectionist by any means, but certainly anxious to please people.

Were you an oldest child? I think it's one of the character traits of oldest children.

Yes, I'm the oldest child. I have two younger brothers. We're all two years apart.

That's similar to me, actually. I am the oldest of three sisters. I am a year and two weeks older than my middle sister and three years older than my youngest. I always was a goody two shoes, follow the rules type. I think oldest kids are many times, to be the responsible role models for the younger kids. The babies usually get away with everything.

Haha! Yes. I was generally a goody-two-shoes. But I certainly had my moments of being naughty and not so kind to my brothers. Yes, the youngest always seemed to get away with more.
