I am thrilled to death that I have managed to get Emmett to eat vegetables that he would never touch otherwise. I've managed to pull this off with my world famous Chicken Noodle Secret Soup. I make this soup from scratch and Emmett absolutely loves it.  Inside this seemingly normal soup contains,  tons and tons of veggies. This batch contains the following: Bock Choy Brocoli Carrots Flax Celery Dandelion Greens Spinach 2 whole red onions Emmett doesn't even notice because you can't actually see them.  I liquefied all the veggies and added it to the soup.  This works out very well and I'm so stoked that Emmett is so excited about this soup.  How do you manage to get your little ones to eat their vegetables?

I absolutely love my kids.  They are amazing and experiencing the world through their eyes is truly a gift. Yesterday, Emmett came downstairs and wanted to show something.  He was cracking up. He asked me if i wanted to see something hilarious.  I said sure, I could always use a laugh. At this point he proceeded to hang his dolphin key chain on this little elephants trunk.  He then took another dolphin key chain and hooked it on the first dolphin. He then showed me his joke and began laughing and ran away. This totally made my day. He's so stinking cute and his mind is absolutely amazing beautiful thing.  Please feel free to share your favorite experience with your child. 

Does anyone have a easy way to de-bone chicken?  I know I could use boneless chicken breast in my soup but I prefer to boil the chicken and remove the bones.  I do this with my homemade chicken and veggie soup.  Allowing it to boil for a few hours makes the soup taste better.  Anyway, I was wondering if anyone had any tips or tricks to make this process any easier.  Right now, I boil chicken quarters until the meat is cooked.  Then I remove the chicken quarters intact and pull the meat off, before disposing of the bones and returning the rest to the soup. Is this the best way? Advice from anyone would be awesome.  :-)

After meeting with Dr.  Reynolds this afternoon, the general consensus about Elliott is that he is severely depressed.  That probably won't come as a shock for some of you but it was devastating for me as his father hear that.  Dr.  Reynolds is very concerned at this point and that concerns me.  In our 7 year history with him, he's been pretty conservative. He's not one to throw labels around.  Anyway, the problem is, aside from the obvious, that Elliott can't take any type of SSRI. You may recall the whole Zoloft incident last year.  If not, just search for in the the search bar on the left. This doesn’t leave many options. Wellbutrin is the best option. The problem is that it isn't typically used on kids and it's…
