It was the first day of school and I was nervous because as a freshman, [...]

I’m just curious what people’s first (and I mean VERY earliest) memories are. I have a few snapshot memories that I know had to come before I turned 3-years-old. The reason I know they were in this time period is because of the house we lived in at the time and also because [...]
