I saw this first on Ruthie's Blog and I just loved it. So true.
To the mom who's breastfeeding: Way to go! It really
is an amazing gift to give your baby, for any amount
of time that you can manage! You're a good mom.
To the mom who's formula feeding: Isn't science
amazing? To think there was a time when a baby with
a mother who couldn't produce enough would suffer,
but now? Better living through chemistry! You're a
good mom.
To the cloth diapering mom: Fluffy bums are the
cutest, and so friendly on the bank account. You're a
good mom.
To the disposable diapering mom: Damn those things
hold a lot, and it's excellent to not worry about
leakage and laundry! You're a good mom.
To the mom who stays home: I can imagine it isn't
easy doing what you do, but to spend those precious
years with your babies must be amazing. You're a
good mom.
To the mom who works: It's wonderful that you're
sticking to your career, you're a positive role model
for your children in so many ways, it's fantastic.
You're a good mom.
To the mom who had to feed her kids from the drive
thru all week because you're too worn out to cook or
go grocery shopping: You're feeding your kids, and
hey, I bet they aren't complaining! Sometimes sanity
can indeed be found in a red box with a big yellow M
on it. You're a good mom.
To the mom who gave her kids a homecooked
breakfast lunch and dinner for the past week:
Excellent! Good nutrition is important, and they're
learning to enjoy healthy foods at an early age, a
boon for the rest of their lives. You're a good mom.
To the mom with the kids who are sitting quietly and
using their manners in the fancy restaurant: Kudos, it
takes a lot to maintain order with children in a place
where they can't run around. You're a good mom.
To the mom with the toddler having a meltdown in the
cereal aisle: they always seem to pick the most
embarrassing places to lose their minds don't they?
We've all been through it. You're a good mom.
To the moms who judge other moms for ANY of
the
above? Glass houses, friend. Glass houses.

What a wonderfully positive way to remind people that their way of doing things isn't the only way. :-)
