Ouch! It reminds me of our sleepover in October: 17 ten-year-old girls. NEVER. Again.

I cannot help but read your post and get angry.

I'm angry that any parent would try to compare their typical child to the picky eater with autism.

I'm even angrier at your physician who should know better. First, your physician should know this is not rare. It is a known FACT in the autism research literature. When Kanner first described autism in 1943, 6 of the 11 children had severe feeding issues. That is over 50%. Second, your physician should know that simply offering other foods will not work. All your physician has to do is read the research on pediatric feeding disorders. Only highly trained experts should be helping your children. All your physician did was encourage you to teach your child how to hold out even longer.

I run a clinic that treats picky eating. We have seen children just like your two--we've even seen a couple of kids who were pickier than your child. I'm sad that you have to go through this. It can be treated. Check out our blog where you will see some success stories (What Works Wednesdays).

Thanks for sharing your struggles. People need to know the struggles that parents of children with autism face.

Great song! thanks for sharing. I don't think I have seen this serious side of you (I'm new).

I have to go with both as well. Obviously, we, as women, are perfect and should not have to change. However, once you make that commitment, I think you have cave and realize that you might have to change to stay true to your word.

Finally, I do think that the change occurs in unison rather than in isolation. Thus, you change together as a couple.

Love it! Especially the butt naked part. It is nice to know that other people have the same crazy morning routine as we do!

It is all about the motivation, right? If I'm not motivated to put my shoes on, I won't do it. I just found your blog through another blog. I'm looking forward to following you.

I'm telling you, I learn something new with every interview! Erika, it's been fun getting to know more about you. Thanks Natalia! (I left Austin 2 years ago and I'm still very homesick. I'm super envious you are still there.)
