My childhood memories

Childhood is the period of being a child. My childhood was full of happiness and pleasure. They are now only a source of joy. It is the sweetest period of my life.

I am the eldest son of my parents. Obviously, everybody loved me dearly. I was especially taken care of by every family member. I was very much favorite to my grandmother. She usually would give me sweets and told me fairy tales.

On market day, I would go to the village market with my grandfather. First of all, he would buy me any sweet which I liked. Sometimes he took me on his shoulder when I was a mere child. He used to save me from my parents if they would rebuke me.

My first day at school is also fresh in my mind. One fine morning, my father took me to the headmaster of a nearby primary school. The headmaster showed me affection and gave me a book of pictures. I felt very happy to have that book. He asked me some questions. I could answer them well. So he was pleased to take me to class one. When I was in a new class, I was a bit nervous first but soon I could adjust myself to the new circle.

Besides, my childhood was full of freedom and joy. I would often play with my friends. On summer noon, I would pluck mangoes with them. I had a great fascination with picking green mangoes. I used to swim in the river and jump into it.

During my holidays, when my mother went to sleep at noon. I sometimes stole away and went to the railway line. There together with other children, I would gather pebbles. We also watched how the trains passed. Once the train went out of sight, it would pass onto an unknown world.

My childhood was full of blessings. It was full of happiness and thrills. I enjoyed my childhood days very much. I wish I would have got those days back again!
