What is your earliest memory?

Answered 10 months ago

November 22, 1963

One of my earliest memories was the assasination of John Fitzgerald Kennedy. I was six years old and in the first grade at Roosevelt Elementary School in River Edge, New Jersey. My brother, Bill, and I were home for lunch and watching cartoons when the show was interrupted. For the next few days I saw many people crying.

i was adopted as a baby, and I am black. I asked my mom if I was going to turn white as I got older or if she would grow darker as she got older. That's when my parents had to tell me I was adopted

1953 I have 2 earliest, pictures/rememberances in my mind. Of course in nyc, where I was born. The first is me looking out from my carriage; black with that big handle....there was only 1 kind in the 50s! But the image is of me looking out...sitting there, being pushed during a walk in the park in NYC. sunny day, with the big white, satin bow in my hair, sticking out from under my cap. and in my minds-eye I can see the blur of things at eye level, right above the edge of the black carriage. 2-the NYTs front page/when Queen Elizabeth was crowned queen of England, laying there in our apartment on the coffee table, in our railcar apartment.

I still remember a few times when I was a kid and used to be pampered by so many relatives, that I almost always got a big candy bar whenever I stepped out of my house with others. I also remember that then I had grown so stubborn for getting something I wanted that I'd sit down on the pavements while walking and refused to walk until promised to be given 'that blue thing'.

Earliest memory is of standing on the back of a red tricycle pushing it around like a scooter, in our backyard of the ranch that we lived for the first years of my life. It was a cloudy day, but not rainy or stormy. I remember the wind blew the swings on the playground that our dad had built, and the grass was very green.

1966 I think perhaps the earliest vivid memory I have is when my parents were away on a trip house hunting and we were staying with Grandma. It must have been a little after Easter, because I was trying to cut a piece off of a solid chocolate bunny. The rest is easy to guess, I cut myself bad enough to cause concern for Grandma and of course I was screaming from the blood and injury.

That injury, and a few memories of my ears hurting (and hearing my own pulse in them) are the only ones I have from that first house in Buffalo.

There was another event I remember when I was outside watching some older kids throwing mud and dirt "clods" at each other near a giant hole where a new home foundation was being dug up. Not sure if I was joining in or just watching the bigger kids, but one of them took a chunk of clay right to the rim of his eye and started bleeding pretty bad. I remember a mother clutching him and bringing him in for help - was that my Mom or someone else?
