REMARCABLE AND FUNNY MEMORIES OF THE CHILDHOOD ....

CRIED, BECAUSE COULD NOT STAND UP TO THE KNEES AND PRESENT THE FLOWER TO MOTHER LIKE THE MALE KIDS USED TO

At the age of 3-4 years old I used to feel a great, just enormous love to the mother. I was ready to kiss her hands, all the time to hug her and to say how much I loved her. I remember the event that happened at the Internation Woman's Day. All the boys there used to come to their mother's, stood up to their knees and presented the flower. And I was crying much then, because I was a girl and I could not do like that. I do not remember in which moment I have lost that feeling. But, in my life I have never ever felt the emotion like this to anybody else...

COSMETIC SMEELS WERE MORE IMPORTANT, THEN SWEETS OR TOYS IN CHILDHOOD

It started since early age.. In the childhood, I remember, I was asking the grandparents not sweetness, or toys, or other kid's stuff, like others, but something from cosmetics that used to smell nice, for example, the creams. When I was a pupil of the 5th form, there appeared the first perfumed water. And it was like a drug for me, before going to bed I used to open it and smell for a while. And the older I was becoming, the greater there was becoming my collection of the smelling bottles. And I used to get higher level of demands to the perfumery goods.

Actually, nowadays I have the collection there, too. If I am attracted with some smell, I can buy the perfume for 500 dollars. And, this is at the condition of the middle level salary.

IF TO HIDE UNDER THE SOFA, THE BUGS WILL EAT AWAY THE NOSE

I was at about four years old. When I used to get offended with my mother, I hid under the sofa.

Once, when I used to get under the sofa again, my mother told me that there was the time when I used to have the second nose. It has been located up the forehead. And, because I was getting under the sofa very often there, it was eaten with the bugs, that were living under the sofa. And, if I continue to hide under the sofa, they will eat the second one, too.

Being much scared, I got out the sofa immediately and never in my life used to get there again. The funny thing there was that I was sincerely believing in that for quite a long time. And only when I was 11-12 years old, I have reminded that story and was laughing there at my super child's naive.

WHY THE SECOND LEG IS THE FIRST ONE?

I was around three years old. My father used to come to take me away from the kinder garden. He started to put on the panty-horses up to me, making me to move faster : "Give me the first leg there".

At the same time, close to me, another kid was dressing up there. The mother of the girl started to put trousers up to the child, starting from the opposite leg there: not from the left, but right one. I had a look up to her and asked the question, that made my father laughing for a long after: "And my in the case of my friend, her second leg is the first one?!"

KID STARTS SECOND YEAR OF LIFE: CAN NOT WALK YET, BUT ALREADY PLAYING FOOTBALL

KID STARTS SECOND YEAR OF LIFE: CAN NOT WALK YET, BUT ALREADY PLAYING FOOTBALL

Here we started the second year of the life, and it started in an active mood.

Nothing can stop the desire! Even the fact that the legs are not strong enough to walk, but already they are strong enough to move and crawl. So, it is time to do more active sport, like only the baby's gym, and to start to play football!

Actually, we started our training from volley ball plays first. I was throwing the ball towards the baby. And she was actively responds and pushing it back. Sometimes she was helping herself with one hand, but still mostly participating there with two arms, like a real player.

The next step: legs activation! It was very funny to watch, when I was kicking the ball towards her, and she was trying to respond the same way. It was not an easy task, standing  up the hands and knees, to kick back the ball with one foot, making it up. More often, the baby used to find another way. She was changing the position of the body to sitting up the butt. And when the kid had sustainability, she was actively taking the attack, like a true goal-keeper! This kind of game was the most exhausting for her at that time, I guess..

At the same time much more interest towards children it was noticed. It was already not like before, mostly watching and touching with hands others. It was already watching what others are doing, and trying to repeat somehow. For example, if in the baby's playing  area children were collected in one place and playing there, my kid was actively crawling there and with full of impressions face was watching others. She still was not repeating what others were doing. But, to be present among others , it was very important for her. This is how the first step of socialization looked like there.

Another kind of socialization there was visiting restaurants. Happy and interested face there was, when she watching the menu and picking the dish like a true lady! There followed the first tries to drink from the glass, when mostly all of the water was going up to the clothes and the floor..

I remember the funny occasion when the baby was so interested about colourful menu once, that the waiter brought the one more menu just for her. And later even presented it to my kid, as she did not want to give back the one after the meal. And once my baby took  the present from the restaurant without asking the permission. When I came back home, and withdrew the baby from the pram, I noticed the towel that they serve in the restaurant instead the paper tissues. The baby liked it so much probably, that had hidden behind her in the pram properly before.

We started the new year of life: each day inquiring the world more and more active way..
