Childhood memories

Childhood Memories
            Do you remember when you were a little kid? You probably had a couple years that were the best parts of your life. For me it was when I was in the first or second grade. I was ether swimming in our pool, or playing basketball each summer. I had nothing to worry about, no tests, or no reports due. All I cared about was if I got to have macaroni and cheese that night, and nothing else. What I have learned over my whole seven years of life since I was just a little kid is to always live your life to the fullest.
            When I was thinking of all the times my big brother dunked me when we were playing in the pool that morning, I couldn’t notice how fun it would be to climb our giant maple tree we had in our front yard. I couldn’t resist, so I went and climbed it. It was one of the most fun things I had done that summer until I saw my mothers jaw drop, as she saw me climbing that tree. She yelled and made me come down. My hair was full of sticky glue. It reminded me of the time I fell asleep with gum in my mouth the week before. Even though I had some minor bad memories as a child, they will never be strong enough to replace the good ones. I would go back to any of those bad days if I could, because it would just make me laugh. Always keep memories, and never let go of them. You should always live each day as if it were your last.
            Another thing I will never forget is what things I would do with and for my brothers. I am the youngest with two older brothers. They could make me do anything. All they would have to say is, “I’ll give you a penny!” A penny meant a lot to me, and I would do anything for one. I would probably have about ten bucks if my brothers actually gave me the penny in the end. You should never forget those little things like that because as sad as it is, you will never be able to go back.
            You should never wish your life away, whenever you’re exited for something that’s going to happen in the future, because before you know it, your life will be over. Never forget the memories you have and always live your life to the fullest.
