Well I use this (you will need System.Windows.Interactivity in Silverlight, but I suspect it’s similar in WPF):

xmlns:GalaSoft_MvvmLight_Command="clr-namespace:GalaSoft.MvvmLight.Command;assembly=GalaSoft.MvvmLight.Extras.SL4"   
xmlns:i="http://schemas.microsoft.com/expression/2010/interactivity"


 <TextBlock Text="{Binding InputValue, Mode=TwoWay}">
        <i:Interaction.Triggers>
            <i:EventTrigger EventName="GotFocus">
                <GalaSoft_MvvmLight_Command:EventToCommand Command="{Binding InputValueGotFocusCommand}" />
            </i:EventTrigger>
        </i:Interaction.Triggers>
    </TextBlock>

You can do this easy in Blend
