Children Book Review :: The Trouble with Mom

This was a nice book teaching us it is OK to be different.

What a FUN story!! You know every MOM has a special type of Magic, especially when it comes to making sure our children are safe. This was a nice book teaching us it is OK to be different. Sometimes we are so concerned about our children being confident in their individuality that we need to remember it is OK for us to be different, too!


The Trouble with Mom
By Babette Cole

Just like my sons friends EACH of his friends parents are different from ME. Yup, we all jive in the same support and love for our children but that is about it. Dr.'s, special ed teachers, social workers, lawyers, music teachers, stay at home, jewelers, artists make our wonderful circle. I am sure there might just be a witch in the group (a very good witch!)

Enjoy the book and share with us your comment!

Keep turning those pages....
Happy Reading,
Jennifer

Your barking dog complaint in North Patchogue is handled by Public Safety, Town of Broohaven. CallRead More them at 451-6161 and they will take action. The first time the owners will be warned, the next time they will receive a summons.

Don't know what the Town ordnance is, but if you live within the Village of Patchogue, I believeRead More there is a "15 minute rule" in the code. Basically, if the dog is barking for more than 15 continuous minutes, it's a violation subject to a fine. Call public safety at 475-1225. Keep in mind it's probably not their first priority (unless the dog has a bad attitude, and is carrying a weapon), but they will be responsive, eventually.
