Great Progress!

Today in therapy Maggie blew bubbles via the bubble wand through her mouth.  Formerly she could not blow bubbles and if she accidentally got one it was because she was pushing air through her nose.  This is such an important step because it is a pre-curser to all the "plosive" sounds she will need to make in her speech.  We all do this and totally take it for granted, but for her this is a big step!  This comes 7 months almost to the day after having her palate closed.  Go Maggie!

Ready to blow

Success!

So proud of herself!
