When I was 2, I thought popsicle grew on trees.
I don't know what made me believe this, nor can I even remember believing it. My dad told me I did.
For months I had been talking about popsicle trees. Then when Easter came around, I wanted one. Easter came, and no popsicle tree.
I cried and cried and cried.
