What is your earliest childhood memory?

Mine is when JFK was assasinated. I was 1year 9 months old. My memory is me sitting on my dad's lap watching the funeral on TV. Mom was crying in her chair next us. I think I remember this because of the gravity of the circumstances. Don't remember much else until I was closer to 3.

I remember crawling up the step into the dining room and my mother scooping me up. It's vague, but there. I was walking at 8 months, so not certain of age.

@Carla My memory is a little vague also. But at the same time vivid. If that makes any sense.

@Cervincio it does! Being vivid is what has kept it in my reachable memory. I can still feel my mothers arms and see her smile in that moment.
