Lily's Disneyland Surprise is a video that shows a jubilant little girl who has just been surprised by her parents with a trip to the ultimate child fantasy land.
I'm one of those children who was lucky enough to visit Disneyland, however, at the age of 16 it was a bit late and I didn't have the same joyous reaction as this little girl. The video captures a priceless moment that shows Lily being presented with an early birthday gift that comes with an amazing reaction.
She's handed a backpack filled with gifts most six-year-olds would enjoy. As Lily sits on the couch and rummages through her new clothes, DVDs and snacks, she thanks her parents who announces one last gift for her -- a trip Disneyland. Lily's eyes suddenly light up but she is slightly skeptical. As she realizes her parents aren't pulling a prank, she breaks out in tears. The reaction is hilariously heartwarming.
