Legal Question in Criminal Law in Minnesota

Terroristic Threats? FACTS: One night I was intoxicated. I shoved my daughter. I had a firearm. My daughter said "what are you going to shoot me?" To which I stupidly relied, "no, I'm going to shoot myself". She was mad at me and called 911. Does this sound like I should have to plead guilty to "Terroristic Threats"? Felony? MN 609.713...?Terroristic Threats? Really?
