Dear Tyler,

Hi my sweet son. How are you doing on this Tuesday evening? The weather here is really crappy. Gloomy & raining. It really sucks & plays on my emotions & depression. I was up really early this morning... 5am to be exact because Mark had to go to work for 6am. I am so tired. I tried sleeping on the couch with the pups but that didn't work out so well. They have been quite active all day so they have been giving me a run for my money. I was finally able to take a shower & get ready at 2pm when they were finally settled down. I guess we are suppose to be getting sleet & snow tomorrow for weather. I am wondering if winter is ever going to leave for good this year. I hope to never seen another one like this for a few years that's for sure. I hope that we have a long summer & fall before the snow starts falling again in another 7 months...ugh...yup 7 months & we will be in winter again. Ok..enough of that!
 There really isn't much to write to you today as nothing really has changed here with us or the rest of the family. When I say nothing I mean that it is very boring. I miss you every second of every minute of every hour of every day. That is nothing new at all. I love you to the moon & back & all the way around the world but again that is nothing new either. Our family is doing the best we can at this point. I know you watch over us every day & as much as you can & we all appreciate it a great deal. You mean the world to us all.
 I hope that I will get the chance to see the stars & the moon but I am not thinking I will be able to as the sky is all clouds & super dark & gray. I know that you are up there somewhere shining the brightest you can be. I know you are dazzling that amazing smile that you have & everyone is enjoying it. I miss that! I know that this letter is super short but I really need to make dinner & I have to look over paperwork for Meme. She will be calling Mom soon. I don't want to let her down. It is important..it is for Bob. He is going to the hospital tomorrow so I hope you will be with them. I know you will..thanks pumpkin!
 I hope you have a wonderful evening. May it be peaceful & restful for you. I will give you sayings & quotes in tomorrows letter as I was not prepared. I am sorry. Please forgive me. May you have many sweet dreams tonight & may Mom see you in my own dreams. Be listening for Mom as I will whisper to you my sweet precious son. You are forever in my heart, mind, & soul.
 Always, Mommy xoxoxo. Muah!
