My Earliest Memorys

Shannon Bubba Howell

BURTON AGED 0-6

The earliest memory snippet I have, would have to be living in Burton in the northern suburbs of Adelaide South Australia.I lived with my Mother Sue and My Stepfather Gary.

 I would have been 3 or 4 years old. I remember if it was Christmas and I received a red and yellow BMX bike, I also remember not being overly excited about the bike as a dog we had recently passed away.

From memerory i was fairly upset over this. I remember this event as follows, I was sitting on my brand-new BMX on the footpath out the front of our Burton home thinking to myself if God was real or not. Well if he was i thought! why did he take my pet dog away from me? Was it something I had done wrong? 

I remember speaking to God in my head and saying God if you are real and you have taken Lady from us because I have done wrong, how am I to know what it is I have done, I was so sorry for whatever it was, Please God is there any chance I could return my BMX and you could then return our dog isaid in my head hoping he could hear me. I promise to be on my best behavior and do everything my mum asks me to for the rest of my life. 

The next memory snippet would be one day from the child care center I attended. I do not remember the incident but I remember the teachers telling me they were calling my parents to come pick me up. They screamed at me, yelling get to time out right now. I remember sitting in the time out room waiting for my to pick me. I can not remember this but i was in time out because I had hit a girl over the head with a chair. I do not remember committing this act or even my parents picking me up or whether or not I even got in to trouble for it.

 I remember attending day care two more times after this incident one was when these so-called doctors come in and done all sorts of these tests on me and once more when the center had cake for my birthday. 

My memory of this is very basic. I remember it was a teenage mutant Ninga turtle cake and I remember where I was sitting at the table when everyone was singing Happy Birthday to me and that is all I remember from daycare in Burton. 

Between then and when we moved to Lewiston when I was 6 years old I have very few memories.

 One from my first day at school, one from when I wasn’t allowed to go see the Ninga Turtles at the shopping center another learning to weld in the carport with Gary and one more being in a car accident with mum while she was pregnant with my baby brother Kyle.
