Hi Kristen-
I wanted to e-mail you right away and tell you about what happened today! Joel bumped into a friend on the carpet, and after he noticed that she was upset he took her hands in his hands and bent down to look into her eyes (and followed her eyes when she turned away). He kept following her eyes until she made eye contact with him , It lasted for about 45 seconds. It appeared he was showing empathy and trying to say sorry in his own way without words. I wish I would have had it on film because he hardly ever makes eye contact with anyone, let alone him initiating it! I was so proud of him!! J
