MamaBlogger365 - Make Plans to Visit M.O.M. This Week!

We have a great line-up of programs scheduled this week at the Museum of Motherhood, plus, our new cooperative work space is available (sign up now to reserve your spot)!

Our MamaBlogger365 project continues online, where we welcome writers who share their stories about reframing motherhood. We are so grateful to Kristin Maschka, who wrote about the U.S. Census Bureau's counting of fathers as babysitters, how it fails mothers and fathers, and how to take action;*Dr Mama* Amber Kinser on why a series of conversations may be better than The Talk (you know the one she means...); Shira Adler, Diva Mama, on a Grammy icon, forever remembered; and Michelle Friedman, CPCC, with this month's A Career That Works column, on how to stop your inner critic from driving the bus. Have something to share? Write us at mamazinamag@gmail.com!
