How can I do it?

My camera has been broken for a week and I am dying a slow and memoryless death. I love my camera I live to capture the moment. I have even been known to shout "Stop! don't move! let me get my camera! or Do that again!" in a messy situation. and now nothin. not a shot and I have to say, when I don't have it, is when all the really cute things happen. gone gone gone forever. So many of my fondest memories have been captured in pictures, I don't regret much in my life but I do regret the moments I didn't catch on camera. It seems like sometimes is hard to recall things that I don't have pictures of. I will always regret that I didn't take a picture of that day I came home and found Stevie 'painting" with product from his diaper. Or the time Jimmy fell into the fountain at the Temple. Or Lizzie as she ducked in and out of clothing racks in Target leaving her hair so full of Static, all of her beautiful ringlets stood straight up in the air and I wet my pants laughing. (okay, that one was probably a good thing.) Yea, I miss you camera. Wait till I find that sticky fingered culprit who left it so sticky and messy, the buttons wont work.
