Memories Stolen From Young Farmers Branch Mother
FARMERS BRANCH (CBS 11 / TXA 21) ―
A young Farmer's Branch mother feels like the last six months of her memories were stolen when someone stole her camera.
On that camera were pictures of her two children: one already born and one on the way.
Teresa Cardenas has recorded every first moment in the life of her five-year-old daughter Hannah in scrapbooks.
"I started the scrapbook in case anything happens to us or just as she gets older, she can see," Cardenas said.
But she may have to scrap a couple of the scrapbooks after her blue and silver Fuji camera was stolen.
"As soon as I turned around and saw it was gone, I just started crying," Cardenas said.
Six months of memories were gone with the memory card.
"Pictures of her baseball games, she was on a baseball team; swimming lessons. She started ironing her own clothes the week before school ended. Some of those are on there," she said.
Also on the camera were sonogram pictures of Baby Zoe, who is due in July.
Cardenas thinks somebody picked up her camera when she was at her daughter's end of the year school play Wednesday at the Carrollton/ Farmer's Branch pre-kindergarten building in Carrollton.
A security guard looked at security camera video. He saw Cardenas. He saw her camera. But there were too many people standing around to see what happened to it.
Cardenas watches other people's children at a daycare for living. But she's really only interested in recording her own. She's offering a reward for everything on the memory card.
"It's not the camera. It's not the memory card. It's just what's on it that means a lot to us," Cardenas said.
