Childhood Memories

The most important person from my child would have to be a tie between my mom and grandma. My mother worked a lot so as a child I spent a lot of days at my grandma’s house. My grandma used to teach me how to do so many things such as bake, cook, sew and clean. We also did a lot of shopping. To say the least, my grandparents really spoiled me. My mother is also a really important person from my childhood. My mother used to always take me to the park and play with me. My mom is one of the reasons why I have such a big imagination and bubbly personality. My mom was so compassionate towards me and spoiled me with so much love. I am so thankful for the both of them.

As a family when I was younger, my family went to Fun Acre a lot to play putt putt. We all had the course memorized and none of us were overly good at golfing, but it always made for good memories. We would pick on eachother and have fun competition. More often than not my family would let me win. We also went bowling a lot. We really enjoyed activities where we could talk and laugh and play.

As a family, mine bickers just like every other family. I was an only child until the age of 7, so i got a lot of attention. We didn’t fight a lot then because our family was small and simple. Now I have 2 younger sisters who require most of the attention and my parents both work full time. Our schedules can be chaotic and we fuss from time to time with everything always going on. My family is also very close and comfortable with each other so though we may fight, we quickly get over it.

My favorite game as a child was the game of life. I’m not quite sure why but having a child in that game was always my favorite part. I would cheat a lot so that I ended up with the nicest house, the most money, and a full car of kids. My family knew I cheated and they usually let me get by with it. My family never enjoyed board games as much as I did so they never took it very serious. If I wasn’t playing house, I was playing Monopoly. I loved games involving fake money.

As a kid I really loved lasagna. I don’t enjoy it as much as I used to now. I would always ask my mom to make it for dinner. My family has always let each person pick one meal for the week. That was almost always my choice. I also really loved lasagna because I loved watching Garfield and that’s all he ever ate.
