Hi Nick,
Not sure if you remember this about your mom, but she had an interesting ?technique? for when you kids would ask where something was. In the beginning, she would try to recall where she last saw the lost item with you right there, anxious and asking. Then it occurred to her, to give her some time to remember without having one of you right there, asking and asking, she would reply that yes, she had last seen it? and name the farthest place from where you were, sending you off looking, which gave her a few moments to remember where it really was. Kept you busy and gave her time to think, and by the time you were back, she either had the item in hand or knew just where to send you to really find it. Not a bad technique at all!
