Dottie Hottie

Dorchester saw its first snow of the season today.

Do you know what else Dorchester saw recently for the first time? A super fantastic online community for parents! Huzzah! And it’s about time.

The Dottie Hottie thinks Dorchester is such a great place to raise kids — decent libraries, public trans, good parks, schools with committed teachers, loads of kids — and that’s just a start. But sometimes the Dottie Hottie feels limited by opportunities to meet other parents without seeming like a desperate pariah parent who hasn’t changed yoga pants in days.

Hence the Dot Parents forum has been a tremendous resource for the Dottie Hottie. Playgroups! Tips! Q & A! And so much more!

If you are a Dottie parent (or in our general geographic area –> South Boston, Quincy, Milton, Roxbury, Jamaica Plain, and other nearby parts), please join in the discussion. Please also familiarize yourself with the privacy policies as we are a community dedicated to building a better life for our families, and that entails respecting privacy where pertinent.

Big Dottie Hottie huzzahs to the good samaritan in the Fields Corner post office last week. The Dottie Hottie received a package that was too hefty to cart along with MID in a stroller. The post office was soon to close and the package contained some important items of a timely quality. Moreover, the post office was going to send the package back if the Dottie Hottie did not claim it and soon. At that moment, some kindly Dottie volunteered to carry that hulking package back to the Dottie Hottie vehicle. The Dottie Hottie was so grateful, and hopes that man has the happiest of holidays!
