Brand Spanking New Camera Entrusted to a 7 year old

One Bad Night of Chanukah

I should have known better.  At the very least I should not have just said, "We should put a label on your camera with your name and phone number in case you ever lose it."  Who in their right mind would give a 7 year old a camera in the first place?  Who would give a 7 year old a camera and then let her leave the house with it?  Who would give a 7 year old a camera and let her leave the house with it and take it on a light rail with about 90,000 other people? 

Me.  The same me with the history of losing purses, wallets, brand spanking new watches that were anniversary presents, and her mind.  And I am a big fan of the bumper sticker that says, "Of all of the things I’ve lost, I miss my mind the most."
