Tell Mommy: What Was Your First Memory?

Some people claim to have memories from their first two years of life. I'm not quite sure what my first memory is but I'm pretty sure I was a tad older than that. I clearly remember a boy named Caleb singing the Hall and Oates tune, "Kiss Is on My List" to a girl named Tiffany in preschool when I was about four. Recollections before that are few and far between.

What is your earliest childhood memory?

    Aw, I love that song! Its so 80s.

    Oddly enough my 1st memory is of me almost drowing in a whirlpool that was in between some rocks at the beach, and my Dad reaching in to pull me out of it. No clue how I even got there in the 1st place!

    I'm so tired these days I don't remember what I did yesterday (silly baby still waking many times at night). I'll have to think on this. LOL.

    I think my earliest memory is when I was jumping off our bunk beds onto the roll out bed underneath. I know I was younger than 4. Because we moved from that house to my parents current house when I was 4.

    I have vague memories of my grandparents' house they had before I was 3, but I can't really put a finger on a solid first memory.

    I do remember debating with everyone as to whether it was Kiss on My List or Kiss On My Lips, but I was about 9 when the song came out.

    I remember events like birthdays, getting stung by a scorpion, getting ready for a trip to Disneyland etc. beginning around when I was 1. I even remember some days playing at my pre-school, not sure what was special about them but they are there.

    My first super concrete memory is of the day I found my baby brother passed away. I was 3, he passed of SIDS when he was 9 months and in the 70s SIDS wasn't really understood very well. My parents were arrested on suspicion of child abuse after the coroner took his body. That was one long day with a lot of memories I have never been able to shake.

    I distinctly remember being two years old... And waking up in a restaurant after a nap on top of a hamburger bun with sesame seeds stuck to my face.

    How sad, Kia.

    As for me, my earliest memory was my Mom bathing me in a tub. I was under two years old (because we were living at a particular residence).

    I was almost 2 and around 2 1/2 for my first two memories. My first memory was of me in our bedroom carrying around my cabbage patch doll, the memory is extremely dark. the second memory is of me dragging a mini red wagon and shovel to the end of the dirt road and putting dirt in it.
