This will make you smile (and probably cry).

Pure joy.

I love how genuinely happy she is for all of the smaller gifts in her backpack...

Simply adorable. Tears of joy!

She was so enthusiastic about everything she got even before she got the surprise. 'Clothes! Snacks!' I mean, that is a good child.

My birthday is next Friday and I had better get the exact same gift (including the Barbie DVD and the Oreos)

Strummergirl,I thought the same thing. She was grateful and enjoyed everything.Her reaction made it all worth while. We don't see stuff like this enough,IMO.She is the cutest kid ever and her parents did a great job raising her.

I still get that excited when I go to Disneyland.


And I have an annual pass!

Loved it! Definitely brought a tear to my eye.

Wow, I hope they follow that up with the footage of her going into the Magic Kingdom, lovely child...

Another kid's dream comes true...
Surprise! You're going to Disneyland!!

Can someone surprise me with a trip to Disneyland?

[TheatreDiva90016]

Posted: 10/8/11 at 6:36pm

Yes.

And the Magic Kingdom is right inside my pants.

Romantico, you were right on both counts. What a great kid and family.

A new very brief video was posted just today:

Lily at Disneyland meeting Mickey!

The look on her face when she realized that she was going to Disneyland was priceless.

My brother and his wife did nearly the same thing a couple years ago on Christmas for my niece and nephew, only they took them that day to Boston to visit their great grandparents. It was a surprise to my grandparents and well.

This one didn't have quite the same reaction.

All I know is I'm glad I wasn't on the same flight with that last kid. Maybe they should have told him they were going by horse and buggy.

Aww Jersey. That little kid is simply afraid of the plane. I don't think he's ungrateful at all. I definitely can relate to being afraid to fly!

Watching all these on youtube is addictive. I've been crying all morning browsing through the surprise videos.

It's amazing how watching kids' reactions touches something so emotional in people. I thought I had forgotten how to feel, but like the Grinch, my heart just grew several sizes.

(and the fails are funny too)

[romantico]

Taz, I felt the exact same way. I like kids who are well behaved and appreciate what they got. Forget the fact that this little girl is so cute and loveable. Its her reaction and gratitude towards her Mom that wins me over.

I couldn't even get through the crying little boy. Put DOWN the video camera and comfort your son.

[SNAFU]

Posted: 10/9/11 at 4:39pm

Namo,my thoughts exactly about both these videos! Yes, I can understand about happiness causing peolple to cry but for Christssake it is not a media moment. BE THERE TO ENJOY THE MOMENT! These moments are so rare. Screw having your child or yourself becoming a viral video!
I am really beginning to hate people in general.

Okay, so I'm going next week, for two days, for my birthday.

Sorry, I didn't video tape it...

Diva- That would be hilarious if you posted a spoof of the video!
