April Fools!

While we were sitting around waiting till it was time to leave for school I looked at Katie and said, “I totally forgot to tell you!  We are getting a baby elephant today!”  I have never seen so much excitement and surprise on her face.  Shortly followed by “April Fools!”.  It was almost if the color drained out of her face.  But it was quickly replaced by laughter and a smile.  So then we had to call Daddy and tell HIM we were getting a baby elephant!  Then we talked how we would fool all the teachers etc.  So at the point it is time to leave for pre-school I think she gets and and won’t be fooled again so I say, “Guess what?”  Katie, “What?”  Mommy, “We are taking a flying car to school today.” Again EXCITEMENT but this time I said it quickly before she got too worked up.  “April Fools!”  She laughed and laughed.  On the way to school she said, “This is the best day of my life!”  How funny!!!  She fooled everyone all day long about how we had a baby elephant at home.  Including her best friend in class Lily.  Later that night she asked if it could be April Fools day everyday… How funny.
