Today, I was babysitting a little girl down the street. She pulled out her 'memory box', which contained many childhood treasures. After pulling out a variety of dresses and baby pictures, she says, "... and here's my belly button!" and plops an umbilical chord in my hands. FML

What a precious childhood memory. Every kid should keep one of those, mine is under my pillow along with my tonsils, wisdom teeth and my first crap.

what amazes me is how few people seem to know that part of the umbilical cord stays ON the baby when you bring it home. It takes a while to fall off, and when it does, it's just a black, shriveled piece of flesh. It's already dried out, it doesn't rot...so quit asking if it was frozen or in a jar for god's sake!

I know where my parents' kept my "belly button", too. I'd be happy to show the OP. :] Yeah for babysitting cute little girls. FYL.

At least she's proud of it. I just count myself lucky that my parental units, thankfully, did not save my "belly button".

HAHAHAH that's ******* hilarious. And kind of... cute, in a weird way. If I have a kid I'll give her the umbilical cord so she can freak out babysitters like this, too. >:D

oh wooow...It's ok though, she's youngggg!

Yea thats gross... MY uncle in law received his wifes cord when they got married... It was a sign of him now becoming the main protector in her life or some BS like that. Totally gross. I always wondered... if they got divorced if in the paper work she would claim it.

Win, 99. Anyway. Ewww, she kept her umbilical cord?! Is it, like, embalmed...? -shudders-

Sounds like something my grandmother would do. My dad had his tonsils removed when he was 5 & she kept them in a jar. She also proudy displayed her gall stones in a jar on her coffee table.
