[Magdalen] Temps Perdue

[Marion Thompson]

My earliest memory is of my neck being caught in the zipper of my snowsuit as it was being done up.  My birthday being in October I must have been 2 plus something y.o.

My earliest memory, if it's real (I think it is), is of being about two and
a half, when we lived on base at Fort Leonard Wood, Missouri. A spider or
some fascinating insect was crawling on the porch, and I bent over the
railing to contemplate it, while wearing shorts and a striped summer shirt,
and little sockies and shoesies on my slightly chubby feet. Not sure why
I'd make up a memory like that, so I think it's authentic.
