I think my earliest memory was from about age 2 1/2. We moved then and I remember pulling away from our house for the last time. But my memories from age 2-5 or 6 are very spotty.
Pretty cool except for the part where I was really terrified and now my knees are all dizzy.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?

Still working on Leif, he's gone through some phases where it seems like it was going to catch on, but then he's back. I think he's just too busy creating chaos to take time for potty breaks.

Congrats, Burrell, Franny sounds like a take charge gal who's going places.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
I have memories starting from when I was 2 or 3. But I think they're memories of memories....
I remember (when I was being potty trained) hiding in the corner and taking a dump in my pants. And how my mom was mad when she had to clean me up.
That might be the last time I've shit my pants.

Takes after his father, it seems. (I meant the chaos bit, not the potty breaks)
And far too busy with important pursuits.

I was charmed (albeit somewhat perplexed) by the fannish sensibility of many of the music choices -- it's like the director was trying to vid Canada. --loligo on the Olympic Opening Ceremonies
She wanted to look like her big cousins did in their bathing suits, so I told her if there was no pull up, all her pee and poop had to be in the potty. She said okay, and that was that.
Ha--this is exactly how it worked for my niece. "I want to go to preschool like D!" (big brother) "Well, to go to preschool you have to be potty-trained." "Okay!" And wham, using the toilet. Should I ever have children, I should be so lucky.

What is even happening?
These stories always make me slightly suicidal.
I know. I would be sorry, except I pre-paid up to my nose with Benjamin, and paid a little bit of interest in arrears with Christopher. Believe me. I deserved the break that was Julia. She was 17 months when Chris was born. Ben was four years old, at the time. I think she took one look at big brother, and one look at squalling infant, and decided who she was going to identify with and emulate.
Also, within six months, she had severe (parental TMI) constipation problems (that started after a stomach virus), so the poor little thing paid too, with prescription laxitives, no less.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

No, I take the time.
I edited to clarify that I meant chaos making, not no potty breaks.
