A new breed of moms

I have found that there is a new generation of mothers. These mothers are in their 20s-30s although, I am not sure age has much to do with it. They still shop at places like Old navy and The Gap. Shows like Gossip girl, America's Next Top Model, and 90210 the next generation (or whatever its called) are on their DVRs. On their night stands there are books called "Belly Laughs" and Books from the Twilight Series. These women can be seen with their children in the cutest new outfit from Children's place or Gymboree and they have the latest and greats in baby technology with them in the bottom of their expensive jogging stroller. Speaking of jogging, these moms still value what they look like, they are active, exercise and try to eat well. Their hair is done, and make up put on. How do they afford all of this? Most of these women either work out of the home or work from their home. Many of them take care of children in their homes, so they can stay at home with their children but, still have some extra income. Others sell products like Mary Kay and Pampered chef. Increasingly, the new generation of women are "Green" the cloth diaper their kids, use organic foods and cleaning products, and are into baby wearing. Many of them stay in touch with friends via Message boards such as Modern Bliss, The Bump, or The Nest. They proudly display pics of their kids, tickers of their pg countdown, and name their labor buddies.
Why am I talking about this generation of mothers? Well, because I am one of the! But also, because I am proud to be one of them. These moms band together when someone is down and out. They are excited for their friends when the get a bfp and wish them well when they find out twins are on the way. They rally around ladies when their friend miscarries her baby, and will stick up for them when some one is being mean! These women are aware of their Earth, they are smart when it comes to menu planning and budgeting. I am so proud to be in such great company as a mom!
