MamaBlogger365 - M.O.M. is Born by Shira Adler, Diva Mama

Today was a great day for mothers all over the country. No, it wasn’t a bra burning day or the day that the perfect combination of lactogenic herb, pain relief and diet all arrived in one neat little pill. But nonetheless, Mothers rejoice because the Museum of Motherhood was born into our world.

The brain child of the dynamic visionary, queen mama rocker herself, Joy Rose, President of Mamapalooza, the museum occupies a cozy, well-thought-out lower level on E. 84th St. in Manhattan. A celebration and reminder of how we mothers make our way every day often with less pay, longer hours and exponentially more responsibilities than our male counterparts, the museum is also a joyous connection to the brave, selfless and giving moms who have come before us.

MamaBlogger365 - "Sex in Mommyville" by Anna Fishbeyn

My journey with the show, Sex in Mommyville, began as a solo reading at Cornelia Street café, which I entitled Conversations with My Breasts. My audience primarily consisted of mothers - including women I met at my daughter’s preschool and nearby playgrounds, women from my graduate days at New School University and Columbia University, women who like me had become mothers and now faced enormous challenges. But it was the little essay entitled, "The Nuts and Bolts of Espionage" (i.e., "Sex in Mommyville") that truly resonated with my audience, sending them into uproarious fits of laughter: the simple story of one mother repeatedly attempting but failing to have sex with her husband during one weekend.
