    "C'mon, are you a man or a mouse?"

        Before reading the comments I had a different view of the story. To me it sounded like kids knocked everything over, Dad lectured them to pick it up, kids start picking it up, Mom comes up and has no idea her kids caused the mess and Dad is too much of a wimp to explain that the kids were responsible.

        Then I was like, "Wait... wait. Wait-wait-wait-wait! That's not how it went down, is it? Oh, you sneaky comin'-atchya bitch, you just made it way worse. I hope your kids make an enormous mess at home and refuse to clean it up because they think it's someone else's job."

        Each one of us has a special place just like the Evergreen Forest. Enchanting, sparkling, and perfect. And, like the flowers that bloom there... fragile.

          This was my take too. Plus, playing devil's advocate here, but I'm sure they didn't want to have domestics in front of strangers, like other SC's, right?

            And I'm old and wrinkly! So when the memory loss starts kicking in, it'll be new again to me...
