Know It All

Ava: Mom! I have a surprise for you! Do you know what it is?
Me: Ummm.....no. What is it?
A: You have to guess.

Is it a mermaid?
No!
Is it a pillow?
No!
Is it a lamp?
No!
Is it a guitar?
No!
Is it a teddy bear?
No!
Is it a giraffe?
Nooooooo!

M: Can you give me some choices?
A: No, you have to GUESS.
M: But it could be anything honey - can't you give me a list and I'll pick?
A: But mooom....you're a teacher and teachers know a lot of stuff.
M: Yes, I know a lot of stuff, but I don't know everything.....
A: Yes you do. Moms and teachers know EVERYTHING.

P.S. The surprise? A bean bag (or as I like to think of it "a random shape cut out of construction paper"). That was my next guess.
