Earliest memories.....hmmmm.......where would one begin.......... womb?...nope....no recollection there.... um..... first shot of daylight?....um...yeah..... drawing a blank there too...... what is a first memory.....can't really recall at the moment.... but thankfully.... I have a lot of intermittent memories that I am going to spout out in order or not so in order................let's see where the memories take me...........Mom, Dad....Me. That's it. That's what it was. Well.....pretty much all about me really. Right from the very beginning..... Birthday parties, banging pots and wearing them as hats, trips to the Riverdale Zoo, Edwards Gardens, Centre Island..........pretty lucky......there you have it........the intro to the life story of..........me. Simply me.
Happy Child Daycare.....naptime listening to Bridge Over Troubled Water, lunchtime on the swing....until I fell off of the swing of course..........a week before the class picture............ thus rendering the photo "Class Picture.......with-a-guest-appearance-by-the-girl-who-tried-to-break-her-fall-by-skidding-on-her-face". This would be one of a long line of mishaps....which would cause my Mother to say many years later, "When I get a call from the hospital......I'm going to say.... I've been expecting your call."
Of course I didn't leave grade school unscathed either......but that's another tale.......
