Whats your fondest memory of childhood?

Learning to bake sweet wheat buns with our nanny, I think I was five or something back then, and I still love baking!

I dont remember anything except me walking in my old house.. dude, that additional information just spoiled the mood..

My fondest memory is of the day I discovered freedom. The first eight years of my life were spent in a big city where I was constantly under the watchful eye of my parents. I was never allowed to go anywhere unless I had an adult with me. Then we returned to the country and under the urging of my aunt, my mother finally let me go out on my own. At first it was strange, but within a half an hour I realised that I could go anywhere without having someone else decide where that would be. As I started to explore the lanes and fields around my aunt's farm I found more and more joy at the freedom to hop, skip, and look wherever I wished. Then I started to run and jump with the pure thrill of being free. I never forgot that first taste of freedom and still have fond memories of it, even if it did drive my mother crazy with worry that first time, as it took me three hours to return.

Getting beat up by my mom everyday and being rejected and ignored by everyone at school. Got punched in the face very had by my step dad, 10 times!. I was about 6-11years old in those terms Those are the memories that I remember (I don`t know what fondest mean...) You got a good story there. It`s nice to know you had the time with your dog before he died. Many people tend to treat someone badly and regret after he/she dies.
