Dear Tyler,

Hi my sweet son. How are you doing on this Friday evening? Boy is it cold and chilly here in Texas today. It actually got to the freezing temps. It isn't lasting though.. this weekend is suppose to be mid 60's to 70's. The sky is overcast so I will not be able to see the stars shining brightly tonight for the walk with the pups but I know you are shining up there and watching over Mom and all our loved ones. I will whisper to you as I always do. Be listening for Mom tonight!
 My day was actually busy and went by fast today. Got up, did some exercises, made breakfast, spoke to  friend on the phone for a couple hours, made lunch, did laundry, swept the floor, vacuumed, etc... spoke to Grandpa for 1 1/2 hours on the phone, sat down for 1/2 hour and the needed to start making dinner, finished dinner and did the dishes and then here I am writing to you now. I was on the phone for the most part of the day. The morning was trying to help a friend that is just so heart broken. She is going through some marriage issues and she just feels so alone right now. I tried to tell her what I did in the same situation but for the most part I just listened to her talk and cry. It broke my heart too. Then later on I spoke with Grandpa. He was calling to see how we were doing down here. It was so good to chat with him. I miss him so much. I can't wait to go back to NH for a visit to see Meme and Grandpa plus all other family and friends too. I just wish that you were there. I wish I would be coming home to visit you. I miss you so much. I hope you know this. It is so important to Mom to have you know that when I lost you I lost a part of me as well. I feel 1/2 Human. You were my everything, my whole life and that was taken from me. I wish I could explain it better but I am sure you know exactly what I am trying to say to you. You will always be my everything. Never forget this...ever!
 Oh yeah.. before I forget.. today are your buddies Birthday's.. Adam & Spencer! I wished them a Happy Birthday for us both. I told Spencer to have a beer in your Honor.. and that you would enjoy that and get a kick out of it..lol! You should stop in and see them..wish them a Happy Birthday. Let them know you are there but don't scare them...lol! 
 I also saw a video that Jeremy posted on Facebook today. It was photographs that him and Ron did at Crotched Mtn. It was a short video but really nice. I got teary eyed while watching it. I just kept thinking of you 3 and the times you all had together, the visits when I would be there, and the laughs. I miss those times. I miss you! I miss Ron and I miss Jeremy. I worry about him. I know you watch over him daily. I know you won't let anything happen to him. You both protected each other. You were brothers!!! I wouldn't be surprised if you sat by his bed at night while he slept just to make sure he was ok. It would be something you would do for him. You were always caring of others. You amazed me like no one else could. You will always be my HERO, Tyler. No one will ever take your place. Please know this too.
 The night is here and it is getting late. I must close this letter to you now. In a bit I will be walking the dogs for the last time. It is cold so we won't be out too long. Snickers is shaking when he goes outside..lol! I will look to the sky and whisper to you. I love you so much. I miss you my sweet precious son. Have a wonderful and peaceful night. Sweet dreams and continue to watch over us from above. Tell everyone up there hello for me and I miss them too. 
 Always, Mommy xoxoxo. Muah!
