This is in Response to the Questions and Reflections for January 28, 2008:
The blue basin that my mom used to bathe me in. I remember what it felt like on my skin, under my feet, the plastic and the way I enjoyed the water. I was maybe two or three years old.
I also remember eating my bottle on the kitchen sofa. I remember the feeling of warm bottle, the taste of baby food (because I still eat it!). I was maybe 3, if I held my own bottle, I guess. We have a wooden ceiling in the kithen, and as I would eat lying down, I would look at the wood pattern's shapes, and imagined pictures and whole stories around them. My then 6-year-old sister would always sit next to me because she couldn't let go of her baby bottle (that was now mine), and waited for me to finish so she could ask mom to give her a bottle of baby food, too!
