As a child my great-uncle always told me that he & my mother were walking in a garden & found me in behind a cabbage plant. All this because I was the only kid with red hair...years later the Cabbage Patch Kids came out. He also told me that my freckles came from standing behind the screen door when the sun was shining through. By the way, Great-Uncle Georgie also had red hair;)
