I don't care if you vaccinate, or spank or eat organic.

This is to all of the moms out there who think that vaccinating your kids is wrong.

This is to the mom who thinks not vaccinating your kids is wrong.

This is to the mom who thinks you shouldn't let your 2 year old have a pacifier.

This is to the mom who thinks you are ruining the planet by not using cloth diapers.

This is to the mom who thinks organic is the only way to go.

This is to the mom who thinks mothers shouldn't be in the workplace.

This is to the mom who thinks formula feeding your baby is wrong.

This is to the mom who thinks co-sleeping is dangerous and going to cause a dependency.

This is to the mom who thinks your baby is under-dressed.

This is to the mom who thinks your baby is overdressed.

This is to the mom who is disgusted when you don't make your kids school lunch and let him eat what the school serves.

This is to the mom who hovers over their kids at the playground.

This is to the mom who is on her cellphone at the playground.

This is to the mom that lets her kids run around without shoes on.

This is to the mom who doesn't have her kids on a bed time routine.

This is to the mom who didn't get out of her pajamas today.

This is to the mom who made Mac & Cheese for the 3rd day in a row.

This is to the mom who doesn't dress her kids in designer clothes.

This is to the mom who let her baby cry-it-out.

This is to the mom who doesn't allow her kids to have sugar.

This is to the mom who believes in essential oils.

This is the mom who spanks her kids.

This is to the mom who yells.

This is to the mom who spoils her kids.

This is to all the mothers who are trying everyday to do what they think is best for their children. To raise them to be stand-up human beings that put their stamp on the world. To cuddle, kiss, play and love with. You are all doing an amazing job and it doesn't matter what you think of others, they are doing the best that they can do too. It doesn't matter how much "research" you have done or how many books you've read, your way isn't the only way. Can't we all just stop judging? If there was a handbook on parenting and what was perfect and what wasn't, how boring would the world be? The Lord knows we are trying. He knows our hearts and he is the only one that matters. Not the mom down the street, or the mom on social media, or the latest article in Huffington Post or the mom at the grocery store. Let's open our hearts and minds and stop being so judgmental even when you think you aren't. Can't we just relish in the good and congratulate one another on a job well done?
