Actually, anyone who has a 3 year old child (or 4 year old nephew as I do), can
rather easily recall that former self. I remember quite a bit from those days. I
got my first model plane at that age, a rechargable electric piper, I remember
things like my dad driving me around the Raytheon plant, sitting in the back
seat of the car and asking my parents for a little brother. Plenty of memories,
impressions, etc. I remember my impressions of other people that I still know
now (its funny how people you once thought of as god-like individuals become far
more human as you grow up.)
