She thought about whether to 1 almost all of the money she had left before payday to buy diapers for her baby. “I 2 there so long until I finally decided on the box that my son had lost his 3 and was screaming and crying for us to leave,” Rueda said. “I was so lost in my son’s 4 that I didn’t even notice the woman in front of me had 5 my box of diapers.”
Rueda never got a 6 to say “thank you” to the woman 7 she’s now paying it forward. “Even though this was many years ago, I 8 think about her all the time,” she said.

She would offer to do the same for other moms in 11 situations. “I would like to give to four young single mothers, but please feel 12 to message me even if you don’t meet these 13 ,” she wrote at the end of the post.
Rueda hopes the mothers she helped will return the 14 someday to someone else in need. “I really hope she sees this and sees how she 15 other people’s lives as well.”
