Dear Tyler,

Hi my sweet son! How are you doing on this Sunday afternoon? Mom is home again after being in NH for 2 days. What a weekend it has been. What a mess. No need to put details on here as you were with Mom the whole time & you saw the whole thing. Mom was & still is so upset about the whole issue. Again, there can never be a time going back home that things are smooth & easy. We didn't get to see 1/2 the friends we wanted to either. We did see Meme, Bob, Grandpa, Debbie, Marion & Charlie. We were invited to go to Chris & his GF's house but we needed to decline as the whole day took a toll on us & pretty much all day & night Mark & Mom were not seeing eye to eye at all & really weren't up for much company. My highlight though was coming to visit you. Oh Ty, your stone & bench are just beautiful. Mom was so happy & pleased with the way it came out. Did you see me sitting on the bench, did you hear me talking to you? I hope so. It was such a gorgeous day, Mom sat at the bench & shed some tears. I knew I would. There are days that it just overwhelms Mom that you are gone. Seeing the stone & bench just confirmed that it is so true. I have always known it was true but seeing it all just made it so much more to Mom. Meme & Bob's bench & stone is beautiful as well. Mom is so thankful for all that they have done. Thank you for being with us over the weekend. You know I needed you more than ever. Mom will be needing you just as much tomorrow. Please be with me. Thank you so much. 
 We didn't see Aunt Beck as she was not able to come to us. She had gone out for the day & when she got home she needed to relax her leg. We understood. Just hope she is feeling better. Mom knows you watch out for her. Meme was telling me that Bean's apartment was broken into when she was not there. How scary. Joe was sleeping. I am so glad that Bean was gone. Mom is sure you were watching over her as well too. Thank you. We all appreciate it a great deal on what you do for us at all times. Bob looked so good. The best in a long time. He had color to his face, some energy, had a great appetite last night, & he even got on the floor & played with the pups. It was amazing. Whatever he is doing I hope it continues. It gives us all hope. Grandpa & Debbie are doing well. Just working a lot. It was so good to see them. Mom misses everyone so much. It is nice to be so much closer to home now then when we were in Texas. That makes Mom smile.
 Dinner is cooking right now while I am writing to you & it will be done soon so here is your daily prayer for today. September 6~ And there are diversities of operations, but it is the same God which worketh all in all. Father, sometimes I see people who seem to have found work perfectly suited to them, & I wonder if I am fulfilling my purpose. Thank you for reminding me that you are at work in me, bringing about your purposes, which are not always clear to me. You take even small gifts----as you did with the loaves & the fishes----and you make them multiply. 
 The evening sky will be upon us very soon as it gets dark sooner at night. Mom will be looking to the sky tonight for the stars & moon to be shining bright. If I don't see them Mom will still whisper to you as I always do. Hope you will be listening for Mom. May you have a wonderful evening. May you do all you want to & need to. Rest if you must & Mom hopes you have the sweetest dreams. Please come visit Mom in my dreams tonight too. I miss you so much & I love you to the moon & back & all the way around the world. You are forever in my heart, mind & soul my sweet precious son.
 Always, Mommy xoxoxo. Muah!
