Surprise Reaction
(I am sitting in the backseat of the car with my three-year-old niece. In the process of playing with her toys, she has accidentally hit me.)
Me: “Careful, [name]!”
Niece’s Mother: “[Name], are you being nice?”
(My niece starts to bend her sandals to laugh at the plastic parts sliding out of the sole.)
Me: “No, she’s being goofy.”
Niece’s Mother: “That’s not a surprise.”
Niece: *suddenly paying attention* “I WANT A SURPRISE!”
