Birth
I was born on April 24, 1996 at 11:14am. I remember the date exactly because even to this day I test my mom on the time I was born. I found documents on my birth when I was young and now I always remember exactly where and when I was born. My mom said she can remember the weather of my birthday and that it was raining. Of course my birth is a milestone because it is the start of my life and all other milestones to come. This was thanks to my mom Sandy and my father Brad. -
First Words
The first intellectual milestone in my life came with my first words. Of course I myself don't remember my first words, but I know from my parents that my very first word was Dad. My mom tried hard for "momma" but as most kids my age dadda was much easier. -
My first move
Although I don't remember the trip, this is when I moved from my first home(an apartment that I don't remember at all) to my first house. I spent the first 8 years of my life in this house and I remember it very well. -
Got mny first dog
When I was only about 4 or 5 I got my first dog, Shelby. Shelby was a german shepherd and I can still remember getting to go to the farm to pick her out. At this time I was an only child so I got to pick whichever dog I wanted, but me and my mom decided on the dog we did because she was the most enthusiastic to see us and came running to us right away. -
Baby Brother
When I was only 5, my brother was born. Unlike most kids I was actually very excited to get a younger sibling, even though it did end up being a little brother. I look back at pictures now and realize how close we used to be. Even though I was young myself I would try my best to feed and take care of my brother, and to play with him to keep him happy. -
First day of school
The first day of school is an important day for any child. This is the first day of the rest of your life. After the first day, the first year of school, it continues for years and years of your life to help you develop to be all that you can be. This day was the first stepping stone to years to come. I remember having to stand in front of the camera forever for my mom to get a thousand pictures of me all dressed up with my backpack and ready to go. -
Second Move
This is the second time I moved houses and this time I actually remembered the move. I moved houses and schools at the end of grade 3 and I remember being so worried to lose all my friends and memories from the place I had grown so accustom to. This worry quickly faded as a began my life at this new house and this is still the home I live in today. I now couldn't imagine myself anywhere else. -
Grade 8 Graduation
Graduating middle school was a huge intellectual milestone in my life. I graduated on the honor roll and although I was scared to death of highschool I knew I'd be okay because of the achievments I had made already in my academic career. -
First Day of Highschool
The transition from middle school to highschool was a huge milestone for me. It not only was an intellectual milestone it was a social and physical milestone as well. At this point in my life I was a shy young girl about to go to puberty and put into a way different environment with more people than I was ever used to. Although this was a scary experience it was great, because of everything I've gone through in highschool I am much better off socially, I broke out of my shell and I've physically -
Allergies
It was at the beginning of my highschool years when I found out I was highly allergic to penicillin. This was a milestone in my life because before this I was never allergic to anything. I used to feel as though I never had to worry, and this allergy just came out of nowhere. It was also scary because penicillin is used a lot to save lives, so with out the oppotunity to use it to help me that's a scary feeling. -
Getting my G1
Although this isn't my full drivers license I feel like this is a huge milestone in someone's life. Just being of age to get my license made me feel like an adult so the actually act of getting it made me really feel like I was growing up and made me realize how soon I'd be on my own to start my own life without the help of my parents and family constantly.
