I have often joked (but really been serious) when I advised friends, relatives, colleagues to walk backward to retrace their steps. I told them that they would remember what was forgotten at the exact point where the "memory" became stuck. Sure enough, this would work. (I've done this numerous times.) I too have thought about my "First Memory" especially after becoming a mom. I was only 21 months old when I went with my Dad to pick up my Mom and baby brother. It was a moment that had a huge impact on me...a happy one. Love this topic and will probably write more. Your writing is inspiring. It's always worth the read!
