When I was little, I knew that babies came from the moms stomach, but I didn't know how they got there. I thought that babies used to be stars and then the stars went into the stomach. I thought of the stereo-typical 5 pointed star and thought that it must hurt going into the moms stomach, and wondered why it didn't cut her stomach open.
