I was enroute to baseball practice a couple weeks ago when I heard a funny whistling sound in the van.
"Do you hear that?" I asked the boys.
"Hear what?" they both asked.
"That whistling sound." I was sure they were feigning ignorance. It was a very noticeable, frustrating sound.
"Does it sound like 'this'," Daelyn asked, making a strange noise, " 'cause that's my throat."
"No, son, it's not a throat sound. It sounds like a whistle."
Dane piped up immediately. "It's the seal on this window, Mom. I've noticed it's been making noise lately when we're driving fast and the air whistles through the window."
I glanced over to the passenger door. The seal around the door/window was, indeed, drooping down. I gave Dane instructions to push it back into place to eliminate that irritating sound. He complied.
A few minutes later, the same sound. I looked at the passenger door again. No, the seal was still intact right where it should be.
"That wasn't it, Dane. I still hear it."
After a moment's pause, Dane said, "Does it sound like 'this'?" There it was - that annoying 'wind whistling through the window' sound.
"YES!! That's it!!" I gleefully responded.
When Dane didn't say anything, I tilted my head and looked sideways at him. He had a big grin on his face as his eyes met mine.
"That's my Nose Whistle, Mom,"
