First thing you can remember
 

As far back as my memory goes... I remember telling my mom parts of a story I made up as she wrote them down. I think it was probably for school, but I'm not sure.

How about you?

We used to have this huge sideboard like radio & record player thing. I'd spend hours in there playing all my mum & dad's records I can't have been more than 3 years old at the time.

I have a lot of long-ago childhood memories (it's the short term ones that I'm not so good with).
The first is me jumping from the couch into a bunch of empty paper grocery bags after my mom had come back from grocery shopping. It was the most fun I ever had. I was 3.

That's funny, I think I must have been about 3 as well.

I vaguely remember the day my sister was born, which was a couple of weeks before my third birthday.

I remember riding some plastic tricycle thing in Malden in west London, on the road outside my Grandma's house. I was 2 at the time, I think.

My cats. I have no idea how old I was, so I was probably 3

I remember waking up from a nap on a weekend, going to the front window in our house, and staring out at my dad working the yard in the sun. I don't know how old, but I swear I was in diapers (I don't think people remember that far back, but I could swear).

I have a lot of memories from when I was very young. I can't really tell which one was first.

This really got me thinking.
My father used to work away from home a lot and we very rarely saw him.
The memories of him coming home one time.

It wasn't until about 5 minutes ago while I was reading through some of the posts that I realised what my earliest memory was.
It's probably the first time I've recalled it.
