  • First Two Years: Psychosocial Development

    I was an only child until I turned 7 years old. My dad was home with me during the day because he worked midnights and my mom was home with me at night because she worked during the day. My aunt Margaret also watched me a lot where I got to spend time with my cousin Kristina.

  • Middle Childhood: Biosocial Development

    I started Kindergarten August of 1996 at 5 years old. I was tall for a girl, taller then most of the boys throughout this stage. I still took dance classes however; I was taking tap, jazz, and ballet now. I mostly played outside or with my Barbies.

  • Middle Childhood: Cognitive Development
