So, I have kept an locked in my inventory for years, because that's my daughter's name. :) It always made me happy to look at. For the past few years (since it was released), I've also kept a locked as well because I love LOTR (books, never seen the movies) and Sam has always been my favorite character (he was the real hero and represents so many great qualities in a person).
In June, I got married, and in July I got pregnant. Turned out I'm having a boy. And we are naming him... Sam! He's due in April. I've been active the the past few weeks here (I come and go) and noticed my plushies again... I had to laugh. Both of my children have been in my inventory for years.
I love it! Congratulations on your upcoming arrival. :)
