the peony who didn't make it...

My little brother picked a beautiful pink peony for me a few days ago.
I was so excited when the i heart faces challenge theme was "flowers", because I thought I could use it.
I thought wrong.
My sister A walked over to the the flower, and (despite my saying "Don't touch it!!") touched the middle.
Every single petal fell instantly. It was all rather hysterical.
E decided to hold some of the petals from the peony who didn't make it.
