Jess: Day 13

My Earliest Childhood Memory

Like most people I don't know if my memories are from seeing home videos and photos.

I can remember being an Angel at Playgroup for the Christmas play. My costume had tinsel around the collar and sleeves and I was picking off. I remember being told not to. I was only three!

I can definitely remember our holiday to Paris, France and going to Disneyland Paris

And thinking back now I can remember when my youngest sister, Lucy was born. I was only 5 and my other sister Katie would of been 3. I remember using waking up that morning and our mum and dad weren't there and all of a sudden our Gran was there, my mum had gone into labour with Lucy during the night and my dad had rushed to go get my Gran to come look after us. That morning I remember visiting my Mum and Lucy in hospital, we took her Peanut M&Ms and then I remember my mum coming home that day with Lucy, and me and Katie watching my mum feed Lucy.

Our Gran had a big involvement in our lives. She looked after me until I was 20 months as my mum had my sister and gave up work and although I can't remember that time, I'm grateful that I had that time with her. We always used to go see her on Fridays when we were off school to take her shopping. She would come over to ours every few years for Christmas. Unfortunately she's not around anymore and I wish she was, like any other person who wishes their grandparents were here, just to show her how far I have come (I was 12 when she died) and I would loved her to see me working, driving and the most thing is I would of loved her to of met Mark (I know she would of loved him so much) and for her to be at my wedding :( But I know I can't do anything about it and I know she's watching.
