RE: ADSactly Family: The Innocence Of Children

in #family6 years ago

I grew up in New York State, USA and we had most of these stories told to us as well. This is the first I've heard of the baby Jesus bringing presents, and the tooth fairy was just called the tooth fairy, but otherwise, the stories you talk about here are the very same we lived by in my childhood.

I wasn't afraid of plants growing in my body if I ate a seed. In fact, I once deliberately ate a watermelon seed and then some dirt so that watermelon would grow. I loved watermelon that much!

This was a sweet reminder of my earliest youth. Thanks for writing it.

LOL. You really did the earth and watermelon thing! That's crazy. With your comment, I realize that family and childhood stories can be the same all over the world. Thank you for commenting. ;)
