Blog Challenge – Your Earliest Memory
Oh boy, I actually have very few early memories.
The one that I do remember is the day my mom locked herself out the house.
I must have been younger than 7 because I don’t think either of my brothers had been born yet.
I must have been older than 2 because I was sleeping in a bed.*
I was having my afternoon nap and the next thing I remember I was woken up by my mom knocking on my bedroom window.
She had locked herself in the garden (having a smoke Im sure) and couldn’t get back inside.
I remember her telling me to stand on the overturned dustbin and to reach for the door handle (she had closed the door when I fell asleep).
I remember climbing onto the plastic dustbin and the dustbin kept collapsing under me. It probably wouldnt have helped if it didn’t collapse, I was too short to reach the handle anyway!
*Edited to add: My mom confirmed that I was 2 at the time. Also she said that I didn’t manage to open the bedroom door and subsequently she was locked out until the maid arrived to let her in.
