Devastation

This picture has been floating around our house since October. When we came home from Arizona from Evelyn's birthday and Hannah's unbirthday, Ben's mom sent us home with ALL of the cake. We had it for a couple of days, but as beautiful and delicious as it was, we couldn't handle anymore.
Ben did something that I don't think he will ever do again. He washed out the Tupperware containing the cake left-overs IN FRONT of Evelyn and Hannah. They were sitting at the counter drawing and looked up when they noticed what he was doing. He didn't mean to, he was just cleaning the kitchen!
I was in the other room and I was certain both of the girls had fallen off their chairs and broken all of their limbs by the way they were crying, they were devastated! Who knows what our neighbors must have thought!
We told Evelyn she could draw a picture of her cake, I think it was therapeutic for her. Her picture says, "Birthday Cake Dad washed it down the drain..." and that is her crying in the corner.
