It is my name, Lynn Symons. I was not named after anybody else in my family. My last name is special because it is my family name. I was born on March 16, 1963. I was born in Toronto General Hospital. I am Canadian. I don't remember much about my grandparents. My parents are Margaret and John Symons. They were brought up in Cheam, Surrey, England and Launceston, Cornwall, England.
I remember camping a lot as a child. I remember thunderstorms while we were camping. We would have many campfires and sing songs. We would sleep in a trailer in our sleeping bags. We played cards and Scrabble. I loved to swim and play on the beach. I remember once, my brother was driving and we ran out of gas. We called for a tow truck.
What is the happiest memory in my childhood? I went to the coast of England and while I was there I went swimming. My dad had a hard time getting me out. I also remember a young man who taught me to ride a tricycle.
I went out for a walk. It is a nice day and a wet day. I took a bicycle ride to my corner store. I spent time with my parents and my brother and sister on a kayaking ride through the water. I went swimming in the warm water.
I had a great childhood! Being a kid was fun!
