Personal History...

Tell about your earliest memories, Where did they take place, how old were you etc.
The earliest thing I can remember is getting my favorite doll. I got her for Christmas. I think I was 3 but I could have been 2. Her name was Natalie. I still have her. I just loved that doll.
I also remember my little brother Josh's birthday. I would have been 4 1/2, I remember trying to help him open his presents, and telling him how to play with the toys he got - because I was more experienced than he was, I was after all older. He was really good natured back then, I remember his little face and his sweet smile. He was such a good little brother.
One last thing. I was 4 and my mom was gone to a meeting. I was home with my dad and my brothers. Earlier that day a glass jar had fallen from my closet shelf and broken. That night I was playing in my room and dad was bathing the boys. I got into my closet and saw something shiny, I didn't remember that it was broken glass and I reached for it... I cut my left wrist. It bled and bled. My dad took good care of me and when mom got home we got to go to the doctor's office and get stitches. My dad had to leave the room, it turns out needles make him woozy. I got 3 suckers from the doctor, one for me and one for each of my brothers. I still have a lovely scar to remind me how my dad took such good care of me.
