Good Morning MyLot, when I woke today, the first thing on my mind was a childhood memory of mine with my father, who has been gone fourteen years now. I was about ten years old, it was Christmas time, and my father had bought me a Nintendo Entertainment System for Christmas.
It was out a few years, and I played them, mostly rentals at the store like you used to be able to rent VCRS. But, this NES was all mine, I remember hooking it up for the first time, and playing the games with my dad who also loved video games. I often wonder if he bought the NES just as much for him as he did for me. Either way, we had a blast that Christmas.
So, I was wondering do any of you have a favorite childhood memory. Please feel free to share your memory, I would love to hear all about it.

I think my favorite is my Mother lifting me up to the window and talking to me to see the birds..I'd say I was under 2 yrs old.

That's awesome that you can remember that far back. I have very vague memories at 2 years old. Most of the clear ones are from 5 years and on.

That sounds like a wonderful memory, I don't recall a time that my family had a family breakfast at all. We were always too busy. We did have dinner together every night though.

Speaking of NES, video games was also a fun childhood memory for me and my sibling. Ours was the Nintendo Family Computer and we would spent hours playing Mario Bros. That was our favorite game.

My best childhood memories were of playing with my neighborhood friends during the summer. And, Yuletide Season. Most especially, the opening of gifts after the Midnight Mass.
