When I was little I thought that when you swallowed seeds, a tree would grow in your stomach. I thought that when you drank water that would make the tree grow bigger, so I got really scared when I swallowed a watermelon seed by accident. I thought that a watermelon tree would grow in my stomach. I told my mom that and she laughed at me.
