Hey guys! I've enjoyed doing this on other sites and thought it might be fun to do here!
Basically, you just post a one-shot of your character as a kid: just a brief snapshot of one moment in time in your character's life as a young person. Can be happy, sad, mundane- whatever you want!
Here's mine!

Jacky, age 7:
Mikołaj was a fan of babies. His eldest sister, Elżbieta, was visiting with her first child: an adorable baby boy, about 9 months old, with an already full head of chestnut hair and handsome hazel eyes. Franciszek, he was called. Mikołaj's mother and sister were in the room chatting, happy for the attention Mikołaj was giving the baby. Franciszek laughed happily as rabbits that only he and Mikołaj could see danced around the pair. He could never do this for his mother and father, or for any of his older sisters. They wouldn't understand the magic he had.
As his father suddenly entered the room, the rabbits faded away, much to the dislike of Franciszek, who began to whine. Elżbieta tsked and got up to pick up the baby. "There's work to do, Mikołaj," his father said, not unkindly, in the old Polish that had dominated the area. Mikołaj nodded and stood to follow his father.
