who's the fool now....?

OK....
......so here's the April Fool's joke that I played on my daughter.....which promptly exploded right back into my shocked face; I'm calling myself Mother of the Year...see if you don't agree:

About a year ago, my daughter went to an open casting call for a nationwide talent search and about a month later she got a call-back to meet with an agent.
It was all very exciting and she got some great feedback about her audition, but, in the end they wanted us to commit to a financial deal and we were simply not in a positon to do so, at the time, but, I told my daughter that we would pursue this if she wanted to, when it was better for the family.
So, I thought it would be HILARIOUS to pretend to get a call from this agent who just happened to be in town to discuss "her career".
She fell for it....and for the next couple of hours we built this thing up so big that it literally began to take on a life of its own. I began to be excited for her!
Anyway, at the appointed time, we all drove into town to meet at Red Robin and after we had parked and gotten out of the car I handed Lace a "notebook" for her to take notes and she opened it and saw in bold writing: APRIL FOOLS!!!!!
!!!!!!!!!!!!
Well....let's just say....it wasn't received quite the way I thought it would be, in fact, she looked shocked....then green....then the sobbing began and didn't stop until.....the following day really.
It was interesting to see her emotional processess, albeit, they all took place within 30 seconds, and then to compare them to mine,which were: shock, remorse, more remorse, horror, then,.....anger.
How dare she not see my brilliance!
I built this from nothing and made it....SOMETHING!
I gave it life and it breathed, on its own!
My performance was.....uncanny.
Someday, after much counseling, she'll appreciate my effort.
In the meantime, I am simple known as the "dream-crusher".
I can live with that....
