When you mentioned in your comment that not all was happy in your childhood, I realized that for some of us even thinking about the happy times might generate other memories as well. I love your pictures, especially the one when you were four with the rick-rack and green ribbons. As reading this, I remembered my mother pulling me in a wagon to my sisters' school to have my picture taken.
