My family moved to Washington state when I was 5. I remember before that pushing my little brother in a laundry basket around the old house in South Carolina, and some church times...the church had royal purple carpet and pews, so hard to forget! What's your earlist memory?

my earliest memory was probably when i was 2 years old at my old house in long island and it was Christmas Morning i got got one of those kids cars that are powered by your feet. I was the happiest kid in the world until i peddeled in down the stairs. It was okay though because after a bandage later i was peddling in the basement because the uncle that had bought it for me was drunk out of his mind and lucky he could stand up. What a fun day that was.

I don't remember the house where my parents lived when I was born, but I remember the second house. Our neighbours had 5 children, one of their daughters was one year older than me, and she sometimes came over to our house to play with me. One day we were in my room, my mother was downstairs, and I think we were bored because we decided to empty all the closets in room. There were many closets, and we thought that it was a lot of fun to empty them. We helped eachother, we weren't tall enough to empty the top shelves, but we kept on trying and trying We had a very good time, but my mother got angry when she saw the mess that we had made. That is my earliest memory.

I have a few memories from when I was 2 1/2 to 3 years old. I remember playing in the sandbox at my grandparent's house and going on walks in the woods with my grandma to pick flowers to dry. I also remember visiting a cave in Kentucky with my grandparents and my cousins. At the entrance to the cave, they had a birdcage with a canary in it. I don't remember if the canary was real or artificial, though.

Hi ChaoticBeauty, that would be the time I decided to use black shoe polish on my eyelashes for some reason and it wouldn't come off afterwards. I remember the telling off and the ensuing scrubbing

My earliest memory I was 3 and I was running around my house on our military base. I found my moms purse with all this gum in it so I took all the gum out and put it in my mouth then I ran around some more before puking it up on my brothers back pack. lol Out of all the things one remembers thats my first memory. I know it's kind of crazy. I don't remember a lot more of my childhood. I remember bits and peices but not a lot of total memories.
