Often people think CR is not paying attention to people and surroundings in a room. But let me tell you, he’s paying more attention than anyone in there.
He has shared memories that we have done or even said days, months sometimes years later already with us.
When it comes to detail in a room, he scans and studies even when you think he is not paying attention.
Over the weekend, we were out of town and we had a cabinet full of our pantry items. My mother-in-law put several out on a table for breakfast and when we came back into the room, we noticed he put them all back on the shelf where they once were.
Recently, the introduction to the Today Show or the credits at the end of a PBS show he has also has memorized and will recite. It’s so fascinating because those are triggers for me to tune out, ignore or move on to what I will be doing next.
With or without eye contact, he is not only paying attention to what is happening in a room, what people are saying but also observant to the detail of the room too.
