Hi Wynee,
Thanks for sharng how well you are doing after the Start Up!! It is amazing how powerful joining is, and your message serves as a reminder. It seems "joining" also worked with your hubby!
It's fun to find the magic in the lint!
With Love,
Doug
: One of MANY great suggestions Bryn and William told me during the Start Up I attended 10/2000 was regarding : how to take this back to my husband. The Son-Rise experience is truly an experience and I wasn't sure how : to relay it to hubby. Well I came home and didn't ooz about much, rather I took Bryn & Williams advise and : "modelled" it for my husband and sure enough he saw I was getting results and wanted some of it.
: Last night he was down on the floor with our son, Darren, who is 2.9 yrs old and who's latest "ism" is lint. Yes : lint, loves to hold it, roll it in his fingers, drop it infront of his face and watch it land, etc. So hubby got some : of his own lint and was laying on his belly across from our son. And pretty soon I hear Darren just squeeling : with such joy and happiness, I look over and he is dead on eye contact and interactive with Daddy. I sat and watched : for a few minutes just so happy to see both of them completely captivated in the moment and happy and just : enjoying the interactiveness when I hear my hubby say "Darren, look at this (eye level to eye level) he hands : Darren some lint and just with all the 3 E's talks about how great this lint is! Darren LOVED it, and within : short time Darren was sharing his lint with Daddy. Who would have known!!! I would have never thought to : share the lint, get excited about the lint, etc. But here we all were, me sitting from a far, learning from both of : them that joining takes on many MANY different diminsions! They laid there and were able to go from ism to : joining to interaction for a good 20 minutes! Just had to share, I thought it not only a great new idea but : so heart warming to watch my once completely secluded son interacting, looking at, and laughing with his Daddy. : Pre-Start up our son could care less if we were here with him or not, those days are longgggg gone and I am : ever soo grateful!
