Dear Tyler,

Hi my sweet son! How are you doing today on this Monday night? Mom has had a long day & parts of it have been tough. Mom got her test score back today & I have to say I was so disappointed with my grade. Mom really thought I would get a better grade then I did. I was so upset I almost cried. Ugh, Mom worked on that test for so long & it really hurts. This test really screwed up my 4.0 GPA now. Mom does not have the " cushion " to get it up to a Dean's List standing. Mom is so disappointed in herself. My goal was to stay on Deans List throughout my entire course...not happening now. Anyways.....
 Mark is speaking to Grandpa right now on the phone. He is helping him with his computer. Things are good on his end & Debbie is doing well too. John had his surgery today. Mom will be calling tomorrow to check in & see how he is doing. I am sure you were with them today. Thank you. Meme is doing well & Bob is being a little more active so that is so nice to hear. I think everyone else is doing well. Mom & Mark are well, pups are good. 
 Today on my facebook page, it showed a memory from 4 years ago.... it was a picture of you & Mom from your 21st Birthday Party. So many friends & family commented on it again. You are loved & missed by so many people, Tyler. I know that & I believe that you know it now. No one misses you as much as Mom does though. Every day is a struggle to get by without you with Mom. I miss all our chats, all your advice, your laughs, your smiles, your cheek kisses. I just miss you so much my sweet precious son. I love you to the moon & back & all the way around the world. Please never forget this. 
 Here are the daily prayers that I need to catch up on. August 1~ Grace, mercy & peace from God the Father & from Jesus Christ, the Father's Son, will be with us in truth & love. Lord, I'm glad you are merciful & gracious. Today I'm resting in your steadfast love, & in your hugs. Amen.
 August 2~ And I will pray the Father & he shall give you another Comforter, that he may abide wit you for ever. Dear heavenly Father, today, if I see or hear of someone who is struggling in some way, please help me take a moment to remember what it was like when I was struggling & you helped me through the aid of a friend or stranger. Let that memory mobilize me to offer help & be your true servant. This I pray. Amen.
 August 3~ Blessed is the man that endureth temptation: for when he is tried, he shall receive the crown of life, which the Lord hath promised to them that love him. Watching how others have coped with what's troubling us now, we take heart from their creativity, Lord, knowing you will inspire us, too, to find innovative ways to move on.
 The night sky is upon us now. The wind is blowing, & it is beautiful outside. It finally had cooled down some. It has been so hot & humid the last 8 days or more. I am hoping to see the stars & moon shining brightly. I will whisper to you as I always do regardless if I see them or not. I hope you have a restful night doing all the things you want & need to do. I hope that if you have a chance to relax, close your eyes, think of Mom & have sweet dreams. Mom will be going to bed soon so I hope that when I am in the dreaming realm I get to see you in them. I love you, pumpkin. You are forever in my heart, mind & soul. 
 Always, Mommy xoxoxo. Muah!
