My mother, thinking she was avoiding the "birds and the bees" discussion, told me that I was born on a chicken farm and that I came with a dozen eggs one day. My hair was very blonde as a child (almost white) and my older brothers said it was left over feathers and that I would out grow them. I believed them until about 2nd grade when other blonde haired kids said it wasn't true.
