Dear Tyler,

Hi my sweet son! How are you doing on this Friday evening? Mom, as you have been seeing has had a very quiet day as Mom is really tired from last night. I didn't get much sleep at all & I was sick very early this morning. Mom is feeling better as in the sickness but I am still extremely tired. I know that I am wanting to go to bed very soon but I wanted to write to you even if it was a short letter tonight. Mom would not want to catch any " crap " from anyone by not writing tonight...lol. I think it is amazing that family & friends come to me & say things like " hey, you didn't give me anything to read today " when I don't post a letter to you on here. I am not sure of what I am saying that continues to captivate Mom's followers but it sure is nice & comforting to me that I have things to say to you that make them want to continue to read these letters. Mom hopes that you enjoy them as well. I believe that you are right beside me, perhaps sitting next to me when I am writing & you are reading as I am typing. There are times that I get goosebumps while writing or a quick cold chill. These are signs to me that you are very close by. Thank you & I hope you continue as Mom is always going to need you by my side.
 Today was a quiet day as I said above. I spoke to Auntie Kristina for a few & Meme but that was it. I did receive a text message from your Dad. We have a nice conversation. He seems to be doing well. He is in Minnesota right now until August. Guess he is traveling a lot again but he was saying that this week he was going to be going to get Amy, Orion & Emma & they are going to move away from California & move with Dad. He is pretty excited to finally have them with him again instead of being so far away all the time. We talked about you too. How much he misses you, how much you taught us & so many others & that you gave us more than we lost. Dad said " Me more so though. " We spoke about him going back to college in the Fall & how I already went & got my 3 degrees. He said that didn't surprise him as I was always smart. He told me that it was my time to be happy & get pampered... that I deserved it. That was nice of him to say. Your dad & I went through some really tough times together with you, his illness & then my own illness. Even though we couldn't make it work between us we both loved you & we were able to stay close friends. He sent me pics of Orion & Emma...boy are they big. No more little babies. Mom is sure that you will be with them this week as they travel & that you really are always with them all. Such a comfort to Dad & comfort to Mom in knowing & feeling this. Thank you Tyler. Not much to update you on. I know that Aunt Beck is ready to be traveling into the jungle this week....tomorrow actually so Mom will not hear from her until she gets back into the country & she is home for a brief 7 -10 days & then returns back to South America for 5 weeks. I know you are with them as well. I am sure you have made your presence known to her as you usually do. Thank you again.
 Here is your daily prayer for today. February 12~ For I am persuaded that neither death, nor life, nor angel, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come, nor heights, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord. May you come to know that God is your friend. When you feel a frowning face is looking down at you from heaven, recall that nothing you could do could ever make God love you more or love you less. He simply loves----completely, perfectly. So feel blessedness of that! Amen.
 It is after 10 pm now & the night sky has been upon us for some time now. I haven't look outside yet but the sky was cloudy all day long so I am sure that Mom will not be seeing anything shining bright. That is ok because no matter what Mom will be looking up & whispering to you as I always do. I know you are shining bright for others to see that need it more than Mom. It still makes me smile knowing this. Mom hopes that your night is peaceful for you. May it be all that you want & need. If you sleep tonight Mom is hoping that you have the sweetest of dreams. Come see me in mine tonight as well. I miss you so much my sweet precious son. I love you more than life itself. To the moon & back & all the way around the world. You will forever be in my heart, mind & soul. You are my Hero & Mom's Wind Beneath My Wings.
 Always, Mommy xoxoxo. Muah!
