First child: "Refined sugar shall not touch her lips! Until age two at the earliest! Possibly age three! Nothing but natural sweeteners for my daughter: bring on the homemade fruit leather and rubbery whole wheat muffins sweetened with apple juice!"
Fifth child: "Does my widdle snookie-wookie want a taste of yummy yummy marshmallow fluff? Mmm, she likes it! Here, have a chocolate-chip muffin!"

About This Blog Archive
- The posts on these pages originally appeared at The Lilting House, my ClubMom blog about home education, fun learning resources, and special needs children.
When I decided it was time to wrap up my work at ClubMom, I moved all the Lilting House posts and comments to this archive. Comments are still open, so feel free to chime in on any post that interests you. I love to hear what my readers have to say!
These days I am doing all my new posting (including on many Lilting House topics) at my primary blog, Here in the Bonny Glen. There you will find posts about my books, other people's books, my family, home education, and many other topics.
Info on how to fix broken Lilting House links and why I'm no longer blogging there can be found here.
Here are links to some of my most popular Lilting House subjects:

Hey, I'm impressed he held out so long! By #3, we were handing out caramels. :)

My #2 had chocolate cake for breakfast last week. My Mom said that was ok, it had milk and eggs in it. :)

Oh, I know *g* My eldest (now 9) was sugar-free for a couple of years, then I caved. My youngest (now nearly 2) has been partaking of ice cream and chocolate for a year. It's much easier to quarantine the eldest from the wicked world of sugar, but not quite so easy when there is a Big Sister with a definite sweet tooth in the house!
