dyk We use lots of pablano peppers. I make stuff peppers, I roast them and then make sauces out of them, we add them to chili and to stews. I make wild rice, ground a 1l b of ground turkey, throw in a can of rotel and add the peppers to them. Emma loves that dish.

dyk I feel like a failed mommy. In the spring, I bought Emma a bunch of winter clothes in 24 months and 2T (I didn't understand there was a difference). Normally, she fits into clothes according to her age. Well, she has slowed down and now I don't have 18 months winter clothes for her. Unless she gains like 8 pounds which I doubt.

dyk Money is tight. We are very blessed. We can pay all of our bills - contribute to our 401ks - but there is little for extras until we get our tax refund and pay off our credit cards. We realize what we did was stupid.

dyk So, tomorrow I am going to try to sell her larger clothes and get her few smaller clothes. But I need to find certain brands b/c she is skinny and tall.

dyk Wish me luck!

DYK- Have you tried all the clothes on her?


DYK- Christopher was very skinny and tall, and at times I could buy clothes in one size, and they'd fit, but same size of another brand would be too big. Or I'd need the bigger size, for the length in the pants, and have to take them in at the waist (even on elastic waist pants).

dyk your letter was perfect, Jennie


dyk I was surprised that the teacher is expecting so much given her experience with an autistic child last year


dyk and the fact that she came so highly recommended


dyk but I do understand that SPD encompasses so many different facets that it may just be a bit beyond what she's dealt with and doesn't fully understand all the facets involved


dyk have you shared the Abi Logic article with her yet

dyk I wish i could just do a drive-by and not read the 300+ posts I'm behind


dyk fortunately what I have to do today can wait until I'm caught up here since it'll take less than an hour


dyk probably closer to 30 minutes, if that


dyk I feel so disconnected when I'm 2 days and this many posts behind
