The Disappearing Coin Trick

Sophia performed her first magic trick for Laura tonight. She had practiced it quite a bit today with me and Thalia to get the illusion just right. Success! The coin disappeared and Laura was very impressed, but then Thalia excitedly ran up to the prop table and exposed the secret! 

In two seconds, Sophia's expression shifted from triumph to shock to fury...

I quickly whisked her to another room to pacify her before she harmed her little sister for the cardinal sin of revealing the magician's secret... 

A hug, a kiss, a little Dove chocolate...Voila! The tears disappeared! 
Daddy's best trick ever, haha...
