Dear Tyler,

Hi my sweet son! How are you doing on this Sunday evening? Hope it was sunny & warm where you were today. Mom, Mark, Grandpa, & Debbie are doing well. Today we were suppose to go to Downtown Disney & walk around but couldn't because it rained all day long so we went to brunch & did some inside shopping instead. We went back to the villa & ordered Pizza Hut for dinner & now we are relaxing. We will all go to bed early & get up & start the day fresh with blue skies & sun. Mom believes that we will be going to the Kennedy Space Center to look around & then later we will go to Downtown Disney for a bit. Not all that sure though as plans can change due to the weather as you know. Mom will keep you updated on what we do daily though. 
 While shopping, Mom & Mark got you something. It is a bust of Jack. We will be putting it down at your resting site near your stone. Mom knows that if we don't do something to make it solid that someone will steal it so Mark will be cementing it into the ground so that no one will walk off with it. Mom will take a picture of it & post it on here for you tomorrow. Hope it makes you smile as it did me. teared up a few but Mom got through it. Grandpa bought us all key chains. Grandpa got Mickey, Debbie got Tinkerbell, Mark got Jack & Mom got Olaf. 
 No real updates as Mom has not spoken to anyone since we got here. I will be calling Meme tomorrow to catch up on things. Mom wishes that her & Bob would have come. maybe another time though. I will let you know as soon as I have updates though.
 Mom has so many daily prayers to write to you so I want to do them right now. October 1~ Great God, I seek your wisdom & strength so that I can adapt to the changes of each new season. As the days grow shorter & the nights longer, as the warm winds give to cool, crisp breezes, as the leaves on the trees explode in bold color, so will I give way to changes. Help me adapt, to bend, to be flexible so that I can continue to function at my best on the inside, despite the changes going on outside of me. And as the darker days of winter loom near, let my heart be filled with only love & light & warmth for myself & for my family. And so it is. Amen.
 October 2~ And immediately Jesus stretched forth his hand, & caught him, & said unto him, O thou of little faith, wherefore didst thou doubt? Sometimes I'm like Peter, & I walk on water. I stand above my circumstances, which are like the swirling tempests of the sea. But then, like Peter, I take my eyes off Jesus & concentrate on things below. Soon I start to sink. How I long to have a consistent water-walking eyes-on-Jesus faith.
 October 3~ And Moses sware on that day, saying, Surely the land whereon thy feet have trodden shall be thine inheritance, & thy children's for ever, because thou hast wholly followed the Lord my God. We're tempted to give up until we see the geese. God provided them a "V" in which to fly, a main "point" goose providing wind resistance for followers. Geese know how to take turns naturally. When we ask for help, we too let someone else take the point position. And when we do, we feel an updraft of air to rest in, & feel God in this current of wind. Amen.
 October 4~ What God of peace, are we to do with our anger when it overflows? Sometimes our anger is the only prayer we can bring you. We are relieved & grateful to know that you are sturdy enough to bear all we feel & say. Where do we go from here? What will we be without our anger when it's all that has fueled us? When we are still, we hear your answer: " Emptied." But then we would be nothing, Remind us that, in your redeeming hands, " nothing" can become of great use, a gourd hollowed out becomes a cup or a bowl only when emptied. When the time comes for us to empty ourselves of this abundance of anger, make us into something useful. It would be a double tragedy to waste anger's re-creative energy. Amen.
 Ok, Mom is finally all caught up once again. The evening sky is upon us now. Mom hopes that you will have a wonderful night where it is everything that you want & need it to be. Sweet dreams if you get a chance to rest your eyes. Hope Mom sees you in her dreams tonight as well. You are forever in my heart, mind & soul my sweet precious son. I miss you so much & missing you like crazy. Love you to the moon & back & all the way around the world. Please continue to watch over us all. Thank you.
 Always, Mommy xoxoxo. Muah!

PS  Mom will try to get some pictures up on here tomorrow. Didn't bring my memory drive with all my sayings & pictures of puppies. Will have to find some for you. So sorry xoxoxo.
