I love how realistic the memory is--especially the part about how frustrated the rest of the class would be with the stragglers.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1079589059457212218.post-17767865416481194152011-06-07T18:17:16.418-05:002011-06-07T18:17:16.418-05:00OMG I am embarrassed at what I can remember!

At age 5 I remember the first song I learned in kindergarten about a puppy named "Spot"...I can sing it word for word....<br /><br />From about age 5 or 6 I remember the "Swing" poem from the Robert Louis Stevenson poem book. I had to learn it for a children's birthday TV show I was on in Pittsburgh.<br /><br />Last but not least. Growing up from age 2 til age 7 we lived in Pittsburgh and I can remember the song we had to sing every morning in class called "Pennsylvania"....I still know THAT word for word too!<br /><br />Can't remember what I have to do tomorrow but I can remember those things!Cat and DOG Chat With Carenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02666719374831725417noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1079589059457212218.post-18006943796907243492011-06-07T17:35:20.663-05:002011-06-07T17:35:20.663-05:00Such a vivid memory I think so many of us share!

Though we didn't sing.<br /><br />I can, however, play My Country Tis of Thee on the piano. It is one of 3 songs I still remember!Wantapeanuthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11993949583915924482noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1079589059457212218.post-33717825441746875192011-06-07T09:32:50.953-05:002011-06-07T09:32:50.953-05:00When I moved to the US from Australia I would star...When I moved to the US from Australia I would start the anthem with "God save our gracious queen..." Same tune. Boy did I get some looks.

Mostly because we stop saying it after elementary school - it's not like the National Anthem that we recite from time to time. But we all still remember it!Not Just Another Jenniferhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01455496431589188635noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1079589059457212218.post-7879006513005289032011-06-07T08:17:29.817-05:002011-06-07T08:17:29.817-05:00I remember singing our National Anthem every morni...I remember singing our National Anthem every morning (Canadian anthem) and then launching into the Lord's Prayer. I never went to church so this was my only relationship with anything religious...and it always felt odd on my lips.<br /><br />However, to this day I can still recite the Lord's Prayer. Gotta love that repetition :)<br /><br />Visiting from RDCCarriehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03472645003197467754noreply@blogger.com
