Isn't there some fact that you can only remember 7 things in your short term memory? If you are remembering diapers, wipes, sippy cups, favorite blankets, favorite toys, binkies, and Daisy then you certainly can't also remember keys, cell phones, wallets and Kohls coupons.Sarahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11990854352260036517noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33118269.post-61865418961115482542010-12-30T10:12:32.957-08:002010-12-30T10:12:32.957-08:00We change as we get older.

I think having children affects our memory first because we get that pregnancy thing where we can't even find ordinary words. Not all of that comes back, I think. But more importantly, other things become more important and crowd out the little stuff. Remember things is, weirdly, little stuff. I bet you don't forget where you put your camera or a lens or photographs you're working on. If I don't put things down in their designated place each and every time, I spend a ton of time looking for them, too. And then panic and get my mom all flustered, as well. All it takes is a split second of thinking of something else.ehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18061383195063293235noreply@blogger.com
