Abstract
In this talk, I give a historical and personal overview of the events that lead to the discovery of the Higgs boson by the ATLAS and CMS experiments in 2012, and highlight the childhood years of the Higgs boson studies at the Large Hadron Collider. These recollections are based on my time as the CMS Physics Coordinator (2012-2013), and because of this they are somewhat biased toward the CMS side of the story, which I know first-hand.
