To Peter (With love from Jim)
While others scramble for attention,
Eager to be seen and heard,
You watched and waited,
Knowing that to listen
Is to see the truth.

Strength of Stoneman
in your quiet walk,
And solid as a rock,
You lived up to your name.
“ Upon this rock….”
The Good Lord said,
And Peter bowed his head.

Humility becomes a man.
It is what made you shine.
The silent, gateway virtue
Without whilch
All the other virtues pale.

You were a rare and noble gift
To us, my friend,
A welcome spark of life
In our vast, mysterious world.

If you could see yourself
As others see you,
How your heart would swell…
Enough to bring you peace and joy
In your last moment
Of a life well-lived…
Enough to fill a lifetime

(J.e.Chesher)

This poem was sent to Peter the day he passed to the other side (April 3, 2025). It is such a beautiful ode to Peter and who he was on this earth.
We bless and love him and are so happy he is at peace and out of pain!!
We love you and miss you so much,
Your family

I am back available to see clients. Here is my website that explains my services. After COVID I am seeing so much anxiety and overwhelm in children and mothers, particularly, I have many tools to assist children and parents to return to their center, to be more relaxed and happy again.

This is a great article!!

3 Reasons Kids Don't Need Toilet Training (And What To Do Instead) - Janet Lansbury As a parenting teacher and writer, my intention is to support, encourage, and answer questions. So I feel a teensy twinge of guilt when I’m asked for advice about toilet training, and my response is, essentially, don’t. Children don’t need adults to train them to use the toilet. They do need a...

The Beginnings of Discipline, Person To Person - Janet Lansbury Hi Janet, My question is about my almost 13 month old son. He is extremely curious and engaged in the world around him. We have always tried to empower him and make him feel safe and supported to try anything and everything (within safety, of course). Drawing from my experiences working as an educat...
