It's always good to take time and reflect on your childhood. For the good and bad, those lessons and memories are what shape us as we grow. It's also very important to let your inner child come out and play, that is what we wanted to do this week when we made these childhood reenactment photos. 

We encourage you to do the same. 

(Its a great gift idea for your friends and family)

My father took this picture when I was 4 years old. I'm not sure but I may have eaten Jja-Jang-noodle.

I was a little chubby until I graduated  elementary school. Although I couldn't use a fork well, it didn't matter. I think at that time I was really hungry. Look at my mouth! A lot of sauce covered my mouth. I think my father thought my behavior was so cute. When I saw my picture for the first time, I felt that my father loved me so much. Although I couldn't remember my feeling at that time, I was really happy. Because of my family. Everybody liked me, hopefully,. my grandparents, parents etc...HaHa. I seemed to get enough love. If someone saw my childhood, they might envy me. I can say clearly...... I was so happy!!!

Let me tell you about my childhood story. I was very shy as a child and I was so naughty as well. My family was not rich, I was always with my older sister when my parents went to work. So, my older sister took care of me well and we are very close.In this picture I was in the third grade of elementary school and the background was an aquarium of 63 Building. 63 Building was the highest building in South Korea and I remember that I went there after I kept asking my parents with my childish mind.I am different from who I was then. When I saw my childhood picture in this class it was a very good experience.

       When I was a child I felt everything was fun. I liked to play all games and I really liked doing things with my older sister, Jaime. I followed her everywhere so we have many pictures together. Even now we are staying in Vancouver in the same room. Really we are best friends. When I was a child I was active and noisy so my mommy and my sister took care of me but sometimes my sister also liked to make noise and jokes and we liked to take a pictures with great interest. Maybe this photo was taken in the room of my parents. I liked that place because it was big. However i think the best memory of my childhood was two years later, because my younger brother was born. It was so good for my family. My parents wanted to have a son. So my brother grew up with everyone's love. Anyway my childhood was full of fun and fantastic. I really miss that time.
