* Sitting in a grocery cart seat in a dress with a scratchy petticoat and my mom letting me choose between two packages of multicolored plastic pants to go over my diapers.
* Walking through a cow pasture with my sister and our two teenager cousins and being told not to step in a cow pie. I froze in fear because I didn't know what a cow pie was. They had to carry me over and show one to me before I could move.
* "Swimming" in an irrigation ditch with the same cousins. They were wading. I was three so it was deep for me.
* Being dragged into the house suspended between my cousins as we ran from a bull that got out and watching him trot past the house from the kitchen window.
There were two more memories from that time but I don't want to go into them. They were blocked anyway until I was an adult and able to deal with them.
