When I was growing up, we always opened gifts on Christmas morning.

Probably the most memorable gift I ever received was my Heart-to-Heart bear. A stuffed bear that featured a battery operated heart that actually beat. You could feel and hear it.

This gift was so important to me that I still have it 23 years later. (And let's be honest -sometimes it is still by my bedside...)

My husband even found a like-new one on ebay and surprised me with it when we found out we were pregnant. (Due any day now!)

Pictures of the old and new Heart-to-Heart bears can be seen here: http://www.lammlelounge.com/?p=43
