How far back can you remember?

I actually find people's answers to this fascinating. If you sit down and think about it, what is your first memory of your life?

I am crawling along a white passageway on cream tiles, with light coming through Venetian blinds over French doors on one side.
Ahead is the bedroom of my mother, and I can see her sitting at her dressing-table applying make-up to her face.
When I reach her, I use her chair to pull myself upright
and ask questions about her lipstick and perfume.
I am mezmerised by them.

What's yours?

@hartfire wow..that is very specific. What is it with children and cosmetics??
@Laughman I don't know.
Maybe because children are naturally inquisitive and inclined to try things out, especially bright colours and attractive fragrances.
I think my focus on the make-up helped attract her attention to me.

@hartfire I don't remember playing with make up etc, though I thought shaving cream coming out of the can was great fun!
