Eric --

Was unaware of onInit(). Thanks so much! That did the trick.

Also, I'd like to use this for one-time initialization -- I don't need a 
watcher on 'mytext'. From what I understand what I'm looking for is an 
attribute rather than a property, then? I tried using

<multiselect [attr.mytext]="'Mary'"></multiselect>

in the HTML, and

@Component({
    selector: 'multiselect',     // Use <multiselect></multiselect> tags in 
HTML to use
attributes: ['mytext']
})

in the .ts file, but this results in 'mytext' being undefined when onInit() 
is called.
