when i was little, like all kids, i beleved my toys were real and that i could catch them in the act. I would stand outside my door and stump on the floor (i was running downstairs, haha) then i would fling the door open and see they hadn't moved and then i thought they were just cautious. I also would blow a kiss to one at night and then keep blowing kisses till i fell asleep, so that every stuffed animal got a kiss. Yeah, i was sad, but i had so many friends (refering of course to the animals)
A childhood belief about toys

night a skelleton would pop out and wave at me— bex - My sibs and I thought that the screen door was called the "scream door" so Mom could yell at us through it. — Kyle
