Now Luke goes to Physical Therapy once a week, he also has OT and Speech as well as DT twice a month. His PT therapist tries to stretch his limits and try new things, which is great. Today we went to a "new" level. We tried yoga!! Yes...I said yoga. I never dreamed Luke could do something like that. It was pretty funny to watch, a 2-year old who barely understands what you are saying and whose communication with others is "aaahhh" or "aahh dah"...every now and then we get a "dough" for door. Anyway, I digress. Here was my 2 year old son who has low muscle tone (hypotonia) going from a "running" position to a "warrior 1" followed by "warrior 2" and finally ending in a "tree". Of course after we did it one direction we had to equal things out and do it all again...this time with the other side. So we started by keeping our weight on the left foot and then tried it all again putting all our weight on the right foot.
Surprisingly Luke was very tolerant. I know I struggle with those positions on my wii fit and I can only do it so long without falling over. I guess this is definitely a time to thank the Lord that he is so flexible!! Look out Yoga...Luke is coming!!
