Scene: The bathtub, 7:00 p.m.


Me: So, tomorrow's the big day, huh? Your classroom holiday party with the secret santa presents?

Her Royal Highness, The Queen of Pre-K: Uh huh.

Me: I wonder who got you.

HRH: Rebecca.

Me: Rebec- Hey, wait, how do you know that?

HRH: She told me.

Me: O-kay. Does Sophie know that you have her?

HRH: Yes. I told her. Plus, she can read her name. And it's on her package.

Me: Did everyone in your class tell each other who they got?

HRH: I don't know. I think so.

Me: Did you tell Sophie what you got her?

HRH: (rolling her eyes at how dense adults can be) No, mom. It's a secret.
