You are brilliant, creative, and amazing, and your kids triply-so.

You’re applying for the blogging job, right?

You. Are. Brilliant.

Always inspired by the tenacity and love you display. What would your children have done with a less stubborn, creative mother? Truly, you are in inspiration.

Maybe I would have been a better eater with all these means when I was a child, but at that time it was “empty your dish” and you had to sit there until it was finished, lol !
With my son I never had any problems, he ate like a horse and didn’t put on any weight !

I hope you’re applying for that autism blog job! You already blog like a pro on the subject, but, to my knowledge, are not getting paid! You should be!

I admire your dedication on this food issue. I have completely given up. One multivitamin a day and all the Goldfish he can eat – that’s what it’s come to at our house.

Oh, yes, we had a “spit floor” (at least the floors were sparkly clean from being washed eleventy hundred times a day!).
Great ideas, thanks

The boys seem pretty smart, are getting older and more articulate in their communicating. Maybe ask them just what subtle qualities of which foods bring out the gag reflex?

M’self, even though I’ll be sixty soon, anyone offering me tapioca pudding risks having it slammed right into his face and tamped down well with my boot heel after I knock him down.

Oh, and don’t get me started on those soi-disant “fabric softeners”! People who want their towels to feel slimy, instead of properly rough, are obviously batshit insane

I am truly in awe of you. I thought *I* had read every book on picky eaters and feeding disorders. But I just learned more from your blog post than in any of the books I’ve read. THANK YOU. The photos are perfect!

I will be stealing the spit-bowl, apple-on-a-string, and jello-sammiches ideas, thank you!

Your creativity still amazes me.

And ohmigosh, lookit some of the older pics with those cherubic cheeks!
