Name: Amon Ra
Age: 3 years old
Nationality: Romanian
This member of the Fluffy Family was given to me by my parents, as part of an Easter present back in 2010. I wasn't expecting to receive such a gift but the moment I saw the toy something happened.
I left to England in September 2010 and this was the first thing I put in my suitcase. The plushie was coming with me no matter what. In my eyes, this object represents togetherness and being part of a family. My father is away most of the time so when he manages to be home for celebrations such as Easter we cherish these moments even more. Amon Ra reminds me of that everyday. I choose this particular name for it because it is unusual and that reason was strong enough. Amon Ra is the egyption Sun god so naming a toy like that felt the right thing to do. Why Egyptian in particular? I've always been interested in that culture and it is something which represents me. I also wear a necklace with an Egyptian symbol representing the Eye of Horus.
