Dear Tyler,

Hi my sweet son! How are you doing on this Friday evening? Mom is doing alright. Today was partly sunny & in the 60's so that made me much happier. The pain in the left side of my face has pretty much gone away so I am even happier at that. The next 5 days will be sunny/partly sunny & in the 50's with no rain in site so that is good. I know that the snowy weather is coming & soon but right now I don't even want to think about it at all...lol.
 Today was a pretty busy day for Mom & it went by fast. Happy Friday the 13th, btw...lol. Nothing extreme happened so that is good. It was actually pretty quiet where Mom is. I did some studying & work on some practice exercises so that I can make sure that I am doing my work correctly seeings how the last test I failed pretty bad. Mom got a chance to see what mistakes she was making during them & by my surprise I have been doing them all right. That really made me happy & lifted my spirits a bit. I have been pretty bummed the last couple of weeks because of these last 2 lessons but I think I will be alright. No... I know I will be alright because I have you by my side! Thank you my sweet son. I miss you so much. There are so many times a day, week & month that I just want the chance to hear your voice again. I want to see your smile, see your precious face, to give you a hug & a kiss on your cheek. I want the chance to talk to you, to tell you what is going on instead of writing it to you. I look at your pictures & it breaks my heart. Sometimes the tears come & I can't stop them. I often wonder if it will ever get easier because it sure in h*ll doesn't feel like it will. I love you so much. Unconditionally for the rest of my life & then even after. People don't get it when I say that you were my world but I know you do. I know because we lived it together, always you & Mom. We could always count on each other when we knew we couldn't count on anyone else. You knew I would always be there for you & I was. I always tried my best. I hope that you know that & I hope that it was good enough for you. Mom knows she made several mistakes along the way & for that I am so sorry. I hope I did a good enough job fixing them when things got rough. You made me so proud & you still do. Mom knows you are doing so many wonderful & great things where you go. Mom knows that you are not slowing down, why would you? I know that you are a busy one & I just hope that you get to do all the things you need & want to. I hope that you are learning all that you can & need to for the next big adventure that you will get.... whatever that may be for yourself. 
 Mom has no updates really for you even though I did talk to Meme & Grandpa last night & today. I guess that things are going the best to be expected for them all. Still didn't get a chance to chat with Aunt Beck today but I am hoping to in the next day or so. I know that they are alright because we have you watching over us all. Thank you, Ty!
 Here is the daily prayer for you today. November 13~ This is a faithful saying, & worthy of all acceptation, that Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners; of whom I am chef. Help me, God, to see that you gave your love in such a way that even the most wicked person can repent & find new life in your grace & mercy; indeed, that your love calls even the worst sinners to become your children. You created each person with a specific purpose to serve in this world. Help me, Lord, to pray that each person will turn away from evil, turn to you, & become your devoted servant. Amen.
 Well, Mark just got home from work so I guess that is Mom's cue to figure out what we are having for dinner tonight. The night sky is completely here & the sky looks a little cloudy but the lights that are shining are really pretty. I did not see any stars or the moon shining yet but maybe later on Mom will. Nevertheless, Mom will whisper to you as I always do, so I hope that you will be able to hear Mom. May you have a wonderful, peaceful & restful night tonight. May you do all that you want to & all that you may need to. Hope you get the chance to relax & close your eyes. Sweet dreams my sweet precious son. Hope Mom sees you in my own dreams tonight when I fall asleep. You are forever in my heart, mind & soul. 
 Always, Mommy xoxoxo. Muah!
