Just Like Pa

We all know Marshall wants to be my dad when he grows up . . . Pa is his very favorite person!  So Marshall has decided to paint.  He tried finger paints. 

 They were gooey and slimy. 

 And he thought they were funny!

 He likes tempa paint even better . . . all those fun brushes, stamps, and rollers!

 We are really excited because Marshall has some sensory problems and textures like pudding, sour cream, and paint really freaked him out.  When his specialists brought paint he tried it and then cried a lot until they put it away because he didn't like it.  That was just a day or two before this!

 We think his new food diet is helping a lot with his tactile sense. 

Painting is now one of his favorite things!
