I don't remember much from childhood. Just little snippits. This makes sence seeing our memory is more like jigsaw pieces than a continueing story. I remember running in a backyard with stairs and flowers I liked to examine and disect. I remember the christmas wooden skateboards that were soon taken from us from our mother. I remember the bunk bed and late at night, right before a move, jumping into a pile of clothes in what seemed to be the world's la

I was in my crib, in my room at night. I looked down and saw the big tail of the alligator who lived underneath it. It was black and curled outward slowly so I could see it from the bars of the crib. It startled me at first, but I saw him many times after that and got used to him being there. He would only show up at night, and I would see his tail and feet sometimes moving around. He didn't scare me. He was like a silent, nighttime friend. I was about 2.

when I was 4 my mother made me get my hair cut into a "pixie cut"...I cried the whole time while it was being cut. Then, to make matters worse, when I met my sister's new husband he made the comment, "Oh..this must be the little boy from down the street." He was making a joke, but it hurt my feelings very much. From that moment on, I didn't like him. Thank goodness she divorced him about a year later...LOL

I remember coming home from the hospital, laying in my mother's lap. I remember looking out the windshield of the car. It was a cloudy day. Everyone thinks it's impossible for me to remember back that far, but it is a very vivid memory. I was only a couple of days old.

My earliest memory took place in at the age of five when I was in Trinidad. I nearly drowned in a river. My uncle came splashing in and grabbed me and pulled me out. As I stood there in shock and fear, my dad had to come in and scold me and not to swim where I couldn't stand...Thanks dad!

My earliest memories are from when we lived on Grand Avenue in Santa Barbara. I have many early memories, but it is difficult to tell which is the earliest. Perhaps the earliest is when I fell down some concrete stairs and had to go to the hospital. I have no idea how old I was. I haven't told the story much. It is relatively accurate.

I vividly remember sitting in my highchair in the kitchen watching my mom make iced tea at the counter. I would scream for a lemon when I saw her squeeze them for the tea. The best part of my memory is finally getting the lemon rind and sucking on it. It must be accurate - I've heard my mom say that I've always loved lemons - and I still eat lemons!

I must have been around seven. I remember playing on the hill behind my friends house. It was a steep hill. We dug little caves and pockets in the hill. We used plants and things around us. I felt primitive. I felt like part of me really came from a place where dirt and caves were the way I lived. I remember the iceplant on the hill and the dirt being full of clay, and smelling like clay. I remember my friends house. Her parents worked at night and slept all day. We would go in there in the daytime and they would be in bed, watching TV. It was the biggest bed I have ever seen. I think it's accurate. Of course, I don't really know if they slept all day everyday. It could have been a Saturday when this occurred. Otherwise, I think it's pretty accurate.

Crawling along the hall with holes in my dungarees, feeling the carpet and lino on my bare knees. I must have been less than one year old. I'm sure its accurate, because my Mother told me the dungarees were brown.

When my younger brother was born and came home from the hospital I was 2 years old. My aunt was staying at the house with me and my older brother. We went to the store that day in my father's 193? black Chevy and ran over a hound dog. He got up and stumbled away. I've told this several times and my Mother agrees with me that Mickey came home in a basket with a blue ribbon and Dad remembered running over the dog.

I am in an upstairs kitchen with a wood floor. Maybe I am in a chair, because my perspective is at about table-level. Someone angry throws a black, old-fashioned treadle sewing machine down the stairs. I can hear it thumping and crashing. I have never written this down before. My mother says this never happened. We lived in an upstairs apartment of a house until I was almost one.

When I was around 2 years old, I was alone in my crib, and it had a yellow blanket. There was a Winnie the Pooh book in the crib, and I must have been upset because my mother and grandmother were downstairs, because I tore the book to shreds. I remember my mom and grandmother coming in the room, upset about what I had done.

I was in the process of potty training. My mom put me in her bedroom for a nap. After a short while I felt the need to poop, and I tried to get to the bathroom, but for some reason I was locked in the bedroom. I began to cry and pound on the door, but no one came. While I was crying, I felt myself start to poop, and I immediately stopped crying and smiled because it felt good. I squated down a little and worked on filling my diaper for a good 30 seconds. I remember reaching behind and feeling it bulge out as I filled it. I toddled off and climed into bed with my full diaper and fell asleep sucking my thumb. I must have been about 2-1/2 years old.

I was 5 when this happened. My mom and I were visiting at my cousin's house and I was playing with my cousin. I had to go to the bathroom but I didn't want to stop playing and I waited so long that I pooped my pants. On the way upstairs to clean up and change, my mom swatted me on the butt on every step and said, "Nobody likes stinky pants!" She must have gotten her point across, because I never pooped my pants again and I still remember it like it happened yesterday.

I remember falling out of the car when I was about 3 years old. That was over 53 years ago when the way to lock the car door was to pull up on the handle. We were crossing railroad tracks when I opened the door and fell out. I remember a tunnel and a train coming. My mother informed me that the tunnel and train were NOT in that picture, but the falling out of the car on the tracks was correct. She told me I was about 3 years old. I would not have remembered my age. I rarely tell the story because that's all there is to it.

Unless you count when I was four or five i was lying in bed, trying to sleep, and I had the impression of lots of people talking to me (in english, i'm sure) but not being able to understand them. Add to this another memory, or sensation felt in a dream; that of floating between two walls which were solid, yet soft to the touch... Are these memories of being born?

I remember this little girl sitting behind me who kept tickling me. My father is now dead, and my mom says theres no way I could possibly remember that, so I must have been a baby.

I had to have been two years old, because at three I moved into the room with my sister. Waking up in my bed in my parents room at night and getting up to go to the bathroom. My folks were so still I thought they were dead. I have told this to only a handful of people. Not really, but the time and place fit very well. My father remembers hold old I was when I still slept in their room and was able to get out of bed and go to the bathroom by myself.

My earliest memory is when I was two and I was sitting in my crib at night, trying to sleep. My little sister toddled in wearing MY favorite nightgown, and held up some ABC blocks. She twisted them back and forth, as if trying to hypnotize me. My mom came in and pulled her out of my room so that I could sleep. I drifted off and had a nightmare about a giant goat chasing me. Since then I have told everyone this many times. My parents tell me the goat dream I had was caused by a big stuffed goat I had, which I was terrified of. I'm positive that this is completley accurate.

This happened one day when I was in after- school daycare when I was in kindergarten when I was almost 6 years old. One of the teachers noticed a bad smell in the room, so the aides started changing all the babies' diapers. When that didn't get rid of the smell they started checking the older kids to see if they had had an accident. Since I was the oldest they didn't even check me, but finally I got so uncomfortable with the poop in my pants that I had to admit it was me and ask for clean underwear so that I could change. I know this is accurate, but I haven't told anyone for obvious reasons.

I hadn't learned to walk yet. I'm playing with another child at the beach in the sand, along the tideline in San Diego. A woman is near, not my mother. I'm sitting in a hole we have dug, filled with water. Unexpectedly, a sneaker wave rushes up and knocks me over. I opened my mouth to cry for help but my mouth gets filled with sand, so instead I choked. Horror upon horror, the woman is helping the other child instead of me! This memory emerged during a hypnosis session in my late 20s. (I'm 46 now) My parents are deceased, so I couldn't verify this actually happening. I later found out from my older sibling that our parents rented a summer beach cottage when I was a baby. So it might be true. My early "real" memory: I'm on a swingset. I'm frustrated because my brother won't push me so I can swing. It occurs to me I could move my legs back and forth so that nobody has to push me to get me started swinging. It works! I remember thinking how impressed with myself I was, because I believed that I figured this out all my myself. No, I haven't told this memory often. The only way of placing the accuracy is the time-frame of how the backyard appeared, meaning I must have been three.

Being put back into diapers at age 6 for wetting my bed. I felt like a baby and cried until I was given a spanken and told I would have to sleep in the crib if I didnt stop. I ended up wearing night diapers for many years, but did not ever get put in the crib as threatened. This is truly one of my very earliest memorys. I know its accurate as my mother still teases me about being the biggest baby in our family still wearing diapers.

We were visiting my Great-Grampa at a rest home. I don't know exactly how old I was but it would have had to be well before the age of two because I remember crawling around the room rather than walking, and only understanding little bits of what the grown-ups were saying, hearing it instead as just sound. I remember being really obsessed with the wood floor; the grain of it. the whole memory is more tactile than anything else...the grain of the floor, the wooly plaid bathrobe and old-fashioned glasses that my great-grampa was wearing, the feel of the grooved wood against my knees. I've confirmed this memory with my mom, upon describing the room for her. I've told it a few times, but it kind of seems like most people don;t believe you if you tell them that you remember something

One of my earliest childhood memories is from when I was three years old. My grandparents used to own a bar and in the basement there was an apartment where my parents, brother and I lived. Every morning my brother and I would sneek up to the bar and steal cheeries from behind the bar. Usually our parents would find out because our hands and mouths would be stained red from the cherry juice.

Going to Disney World with my mom and dad, along with my dad's freind and his family. I was about two years old, and their daughter and I (she was two) just wanted to go swimming instead of doing the whole Disney thing. Because we through such a fit we both got into alot of troble. Yes, I'm sure it is accurate.

When I was about 5 years old. I remeber playing tag with my brother and I fell and hit my head on a rock. I didn't cry until I went inside and my mom started to scream. I have told it quite a bit. and I know this is very accurate because my mom and brother have the same story.

My first memory is that of allmost poisoning my mother. This happened when I was just two years old and I had just got a new sister. Back then I was a lemonade addict, every day in the afternoon, my mum would make me a glass of sirup. On this day I made it myself. I remember looking in the mirror, seeing that one of my teeth had turned black of all the lemonade sweetness. Still I did not hesitate, my mum had told me I could go make my own and I would. I had already put a lot of lemonade in the glass, so now I was standing in front of the toilet tab to fill it up with water. It soon turned out that my addiction for lemonade had turned wild, the mixture was very much too strong. Even for a veteran like me it was just undrinkable. I put the glass on the dining table and left it there for somebody else to clean it up. I felt quite guilty about having been so selfish as to put as much sirup as possible in my glass. The next moment i remember was when my mother walked down the stairs, into the living room to set the table. She saw the glass and noticed that I had not drank from it. She put the glass to her lips and drank it. Then she suddenly grapped her stomach and she started bleeding allover. An ambulance came to pick her up and take her to the hospital. The first time I told my mum this was about ten years later. It was only then that i had found out that you can't poison your mum with lemonade. It turned out that i was free of blame; My mother had had to go to the hospital because of inner bleedings, resulting from the birth of my sister. This sequence of events might well not be quite accurate in that I am not sure about noticing my black yooth on that very day. It might already have been there for a while. However, when I told my mum just two weeks ago that this was my first memory, I was specifically eager to find out how accurate my recollection was. It turned out that at the very moment my mum took a sip from the glass, the bleedings began. She had not fallen to the ground as I had remembered, but an ambulanca had come and she was hurriedly taken to a hospital. Now how could I, beeing just a two year old by, have known, that the causal relationship I perceived, was not as it seemed to be. Me beeing all new in the field of causality and all.

I believe my earliest memory was at approximately 8 months of age. The memory was of a christmas event (i was born in april,hence the 8 months). as my family was leaving the christmas event (complete with santa and christmas tree) we were driving away in a car. my mom was holding me cuddled in her arms and i was very sad to be leaving such a happy occasion. my mom was holding me like you would an infant, and since i had a baby brother by 18 months of age, it seems unlikely that she would have had me in her arms like that(not to mention that i don't remember anyone else with us at the time). of course there is really no way of knowing if this memory is accurate... but it sure seems so!

When I was 8 I was outside at recess and I had to poop really bad, I asked if I could go and she said wait we are about to go in. She blew the wistle and we lined up against the wall to go in and I let go. the poop gushed into my shorts and started running down my legs. As i was walking in I was leaving a trail. I have never told anyone before. It was very embarassing.

I remember one day before I was in school. My mom was home with me we were walking my brother to the bus stop. I lock the door but my mom didn't have the keys. So we were stuck out side until my step dad got home from work and we couldn't even go anywhere in the car.
