So. Long story short. I went on a vacation with my mom. My son was 1 and 1/2 and didn't want to be there. I had a camera that had all the pictures of my son coming into this world on there. I took my camera and put it in my mom's purse because I was hot and tired of carrying it around. (I was such a genius that day it was 90° outside and I wore all black!)

Well we decided to call it quits early and head back because my son wasn't going to sleep. I left forgetting my mom had my camera! So I called her told her to mail it back to me and she said this word for word. (Yes I'm cleaning out my purse right now and I'm looking right at it. I'll mail it out as soon as we get back home.) So the next day I called my mom once she got home and asked her how much she was going to need to mail it out... Well she forgot about it and starts looking through her purse. What seems like hours of silence finally broke when she told me she doesn't have it.... DOESNT HAVE IT?! I asked her what happened and she said she must have forgot to put it back in her purse...

I was so angry at her for months because she lost memories of mine I'll never get back. She offered to pay for the camera but I didn't care about that. I wanted those pictures back!

Well now fast forward a few years I'm pregnant with my second child and my son is turning 5 next month. My mom wants me to have someone in the delivery room to take pictures when my daughter is born. I never considered it because I don't have any of my son I felt it's unfair to my son to not have those pictures of him but have them of his sister. I just don't care to capture the moment any more...

I just want to know how you guys would feel in this situation and what you would do? I just need some words of wisdom.
