When i was 4 ,My brother and sister would go to my grandparent house in californa alone.Since i wasn't aloud on the plane by myself(but my brother and sister were old enough)My parent told me they were going to home work camp. I belived then till recently...
Also when we were at my Grandparents swimming pool my brother told me we came from a family of mermaids.When i told him i couldn't breath or see under water he said that wasnt smart enough to be a mermaid.He also said that i had to eat orange food things to become more of a mermaid.
