I don't think having early memories has anything to do with intelligence....and I think you may be thinking of Belle's stories...I told Mama I could remember when Joyce got kicked in the forehead by Ma's buggy horse Daddy had over there trying to tame it enough to pull the buggy...She said I couldn't because I wasn't but 2 years old. I asked her about a little wheeled toy daddy made for us and she said we had one. I just remember the horse being tied up and us going behind it...I can remember several things that happened when I was 3 , and also 4...Have many more memories of when I was 5 , started to school then before I became 6 in Dec.... I was sick so much when I was little I guess I was just stuck where the action was and the other kids were outside playing....I had pneumonia when I was 3 , the winter after coming within a whisker of dying with colitis the summer I was 2.... Mama's sister, Aunt Zula, came to see me. She knew I had a cat and I told her Mama wouldn't let it in the house...so she went and got my cat and put it on my bed...big gray fluffy cat. She asked me what I wanted her to cook for my lunch and I told her' Chicken and dumplings, but don't kill one of MY chickens.!"..She grinned at me, pointed to Mama and said ' I won't...I'll kill one of HERS! " Talk about busy ... I was 3 years old and had my own cat and some chickens! Mama used to give me all the sick baby chickens and I tried to make them well...Jeannie T ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ On Fri, 28 Jan 2011 06:57:35 -0600 busmar1852@webtv.net (busbys martins) writes: > Jeannie T. .......you are sure smarter than I am...(or was, whatever) I can not remember things that I did, when I was that young..
