Blow!

Jack just started speech therapy this past week. He talks all the time, and his articulation is improving, but he is really difficult to understand. The speech pathologist says that he is having trouble physically manipulating his lips, tongue, etc. to make the sounds. So, they have recommended some exercises to try at home to help him develop control of his mouth and facial muscles. One of these exercises is blowing out a candle, bubbles, etc. Though speech therapy was not the goal of this interaction between Dan and the boys a couple days ago, I think Jack earned an A+ for his speech therapy homework!


So naturally, Jack wanted to try, too. The only thing Jack wants to be more than Calvin is Daddy, so here was his attempt.


Dan then started blowing in Luke's face....yes, normally, I would say, "How cruel!" But, Luke loved it! 
I love seeing Luke's little hair standing on end just before his look of elation!
