Tell me some of your earliest memories as a child!

1. I can remember being 4 years old and kicking my kindergarten teacher in the leg because she wouldn't let me go out to recess unless I drank white milk instead of chocolate like I usually drank. I had to sit in the corner for a week.
2. I was 5 years old and got my tonsils and adenoids removed and plugs in my ears and I can remember being on the gurney. I remember all the ice cream afterwards.
3. I can remember being about 6 and my neighbor got his stomach blown out by a firecracker and I was terrified of them ever since.
4. I can remember when I was a kid and all the neighborhood kids would come to our house to play because we had a treehouse, basketball goal, big trampoline, etc. There was a little boy a lot younger than all the other kids and everyone was really mean to him and used to throw cicada shells on him because he was so scared of them.

What are some things you remember as a kid?

I remember learning to read around three and a half years old.
I remember the first dog in my life passing away around four or five.😭 My Grandmother's Standard Poodle... I was CRUSHED!!! It's my first memory of true heartbreak.
Catching tadpoles, sneaking out in the dark to go fishing, watching butterflies emerge after keeping a chrysalis collection through the winter. Everyone stayed up late to watch the butterflies.🦋🤓

@UnderLockDown wonderful memories except for the poodle dying! I remember catching fireflies as a kid and putting them in jars.
@Mardrae I have never seen a firefly in real life!! How sad is that?!😤😆 I have traveled to states that have them, but it was always for work so I never had a chance to run around check out the wildlife.

@UnderLockDown it's weird- it's been many years since I've seen one! But then again I am not outside much at dusk when they are out
