It just shows why you are a happy person now.

> My earliest memory... age two, with my mother. I remember taking walks with her, swimming in the pool with her, doing any number of everyday household and outdoor activities with her. Her voice, her liveliness, her long mid-70s hairstyle. A can filled with crayons stands out in my memory for some reason. And I remember, that at one particular moment, while looking at this can of crayons (no connection implied - just a memorial coincidence) that I asked my mother, "Am I three yet?" I got into the habit of asking her this question daily, if I remember correctly. She always answered "No, you're still two." After a few days, she said, "Yes, you're three now," just to shut me up. So, mostly just my mom talking to me, showing me things, teaching me things - everything from alphanumerics to worldly wisdom (she's a very academic person - she tested as an INTP). I have no memories of my father, which can be understood since he was usually at work. Though I do remember a female babysitter with a likewise long mid-70s hairstyle. So what does this say about me?
