Pre-K / Kindergarten memories

Being the youngest in my family, and my next oldest sibling being 5 years old than myself, I remember playing by myself when I was younger quite a bit.  I remember making up imagination games. 
riding my trike, all dressed up in our driveway around age 3

Some funny stories my family likes to tell about me and that I remember are:
I used to say "my bottom burped" when I passed gas.




Modeling in my styling red jacket! :) Around 3 1/2.

Easter dress around age 4

4th birthday with presents (love how they are so simple, but I was SO excited!)

Showing off the french braid my sister did.

Jumping on the trampoline around age 3 or 4.
 When I was 5 I attended a Kindergarten two houses down the street.  A neighboor had added onto their house a "school" room.  There were about 20 people in my class.

I remember one time during "story time", we were all sitting on the rug listening to our teacher tell a story.  I had to go to the bathroom and I sat there raising my hand (because we weren't supposed to talk out of turn) and my teacher never saw me.  I finally had to get up and run to the bathroom (which was in that same room, just off to the side) and as I ran, I had pee running down my leg.  I was SO embarrased.  I had to stay in the bathroom and my teacher brought me a pair of brown corduroy pants to wear, and my jacket as a shirt.  I remember when I finally came out of the bathroom I felt like everyone was staring at me.  I remember one boy teasing me and saying "why don't you take off your jacket"!  I remember walking home with a brown paper bag with my wet clothes.  It felt like that walk home was a lot longer than 2 houses!
