My First Childhood Memories
The first memories I have are not very happy. My parents divorced when I was 3 or 4. I have several memories of fights and police. But I do remember one good thing. We lived on a dead end street in Hanna City, Illinois. The house was at the very end at the bottom of a hill. The house was small. I remember having a bedroom that was located kind of behind the living room. One nice thing I remember about that house is my Grandpa John Clifton McKee making peanut butter fudge. We would sit at the kitchen table and eat the fudge. I can still smell that fudge. I loved my grandpa so much. He died when I was 10. I also remember visiting a house that was located a few houses from our house on the same street. An older lady that I can't remember her name (I should ask my dad) made me a quilt that was black and blue. All I can remember about her house was that it was white and had a silver metal screen door. Hopefully in 2012 I can take a trip back to Illinois and visit this street. It would be nice to see if my memories are accurate. Sometimes I wonder if my memories are actual memories or from pictures that I've seen.
