When my little sister was three, she had a bottle of body spray which she named smelly. She took smelly everywhere and talk to him/her (not sure which it was). We went on a cruise that year and she left smelly on the boat and was devistated, of course. To make matters worse, when we went on another cruise the next year she couldn't wait to enter the cabin and be reunited with her long lost smelly. Little did she know we were on a different ship, which cause some more tears.
