When I was around 5 or 6, we were at my great uncle's house and several relatives started talking about my parents' wedding. I told them, "Oh yeah, I was there too." They of course knew this wasn't true, and asked where I was. I said, "I was in my mommy's tummy." I couldn't understand why they were laughing so hard at me. Of course what I had accidentally implied was that my mom was knocked up when they got married - which they also knew wasn't true, since I wasn't born for another 4 years... I still feel embarassed about that one, but I guess at the time I believed all babies were just waiting in their mommy's tummy until the right time to be born.
