Dear Tyler,

Hi my sweet son. How are you doing on this Thursday evening? I hope everything is wonderful where you are tonight & you are doing everything you want to & need to. Mom is doing ok. My eyes are pretty tired tonight as I have been studying all day & I did another test, proofed it & submitted it a few minutes ago. That is # 25..getting closer every day! I am pretty tired tonight as I was up very early with the pups. Princess is still in heat & now Ozzy is showing interest in her & that is not cool. I don't need Princess to get pregnant & have more puppies. She is too old for that now. I have to watch the both of them like hawks all day long so they don't do anything, plus do all the laundry, house work, cooking, & studying. Just sometimes it is just too much for Mom. I will be going to bed in an hour or so as Mark & Mom will be getting up early to make the drive to NH again. I will be picking up my new vehicle. I am getting excited but not so much as of yet because it hasn't hit me. We will be spending the night tomorrow so I am not sure if I will be bringing my computer or not. If I don't write to you tomorrow night then I will be back on Saturday afternoon & I will write to you then to catch you up on things. I will be seeing Meme, Bob, Grandpa, Debbie, Marion & Charlie but that is it. It is a quick, short trip there & back for us. If we thought we could do it all in a day we would but I don't want to push it. Plus it will give me a chance to see our family for a few hours again. It is nice to be close by to do this more often. We have gone up there March, April, May, June & now July. I have seen family & some friends more in the last 5 months then in the last 3 years when we were in Oklahoma & Texas. 
 I don't have much for updates as I didn't talk on the phone today with anyone. I studied & Mark was gone all day to his office. Quiet for the most part when the pups were not acting up..lol.  I am sure to have some kind of updates for you when we get back or maybe perhaps tomorrow night..as I said I haven't decided if I am taking the computer or not. Sometimes it is just nice to get away from all the electronics for a change & not have attached to the hip..lol. 
 Anyways...the evening sky is upon us now. It is very dark out & I am seeing nothing shining as of right now. If the moon & stars are out I don't see anything from where I am. I am hoping to take the pups for a quick walk in a couple minutes so I will look to the sky. I know even if I don't see anything I know you are shining bright wherever you are my sweet precious son. I will whisper to you as I always do. Be listening out for Mom.
 I hope that you have a wonderful night. May you get to do all the things you want and need to do. I hope that if you can, you can rest for a few & close your eyes & get to have the sweetest of dreams. I am hoping that when I close my eyes I get to dream of you. I miss you so much my son. I love you unconditionally & that will never change. You are forever in my heart, mind, & soul.
 Always, Mommy xoxoxo. Muah!

P.S. I will do the daily prayers for you either Friday or in Saturdays letter. Love you xoxoxo.
