Flip Video - You'll Flip Over This

Oh no. You caught your toddler getting into your make-up. It's all over her face, body, the floor...do you want to scream or grab the camcorder? The moment is priceless. Grab the camcorder. However, where the heck is it? Is it charged? No. Where's the cord? Ugh, forget it.

How about this? You're out and about and your child is telling some hilarious stories. Do you have your camcorder handy? Of course not! You never seem to have it when you need it most. This is the story of my life. I've missed out on some pretty precious moments because my camcorder was....who knows....that's the problem.

If I would have had a Flip over the past seven years, I would have literally taped every second of my son's life. It's a good thing I have one now because I use it daily. I've been following my kids around like the paparazzi. I'm their biggest fan!
