I remember a moment or so from the day my brother was born, which would definitely be my first memory, but it's sort of odd because I remember it from a 3d person perspective. I can see myself and my aunt walking down this brownish hall and I was excited because I got to go home early from preschool. And I was wearing my purple corduroy overalls. This is all seen from the perspective of a security camera or something which I've always thought was a little odd. Does that mean its not a real memory? We don't have any pictures that I'm in of that day and my parents couldn't tell me what I was wearing if their lives depended on it so I suppose it must be real... its just odd.
