I have a 3 yr old too. Luckily, I have an 8 yr old who will turn 9 next month and a 6 yr old and they help out with her when I'm busy. I made a cake a couple of weeks ago to take somewhere. I had carefully laid sliced strawberries in a circular pattern over the top of the cake, and then some along the base. I went up stairs to change my shirt and came down and she was eating the strawberries off of it. I didn't buy her ice cream, and later regretted that I had over reacted. I re-arranged the strawberries and smoothed out the finger marks and it turned out just fine. My poor kids! Two weeks in a row I made the same type of cake for a baby shower and something else and they never got any. I'm going to make one for them for our Easter treat. I don't know what I would do is they messed with my seedlings. I hope I could react like you did.
