Dear Tyler,

Hi my sweet son. Happy Easter to you in Heaven. I hope that where you were it was full of sunshine. Here where Mom is it was pretty chilly but the sun did come out for a little bit today which was so nice to see but tomorrow will be right back to cloudy, gray & rainy. Go figure right? Guess we need a lot of rain to wash out all the negative things in this world. Today was a really good day for Mom but super busy. Meme, Bob, Grandpa & Debbie... Skittles too, came down to visit. Mom made a nice dinner for us all & we had a lot of great conversation & laughs. They all stayed for about 6 hours. Mom was really sad when they left. I miss them all so much. I hope that they have a safe ride home with no traffic but I know they will as you are guiding them. Thank you pumpkin. Mom is pretty wiped out with doing all the cooking & cleaning up but it is a good tired. The pups are wiped out as well from playing with Skittles. They were really cute together. Did you see them? If so I know you were smiling. In about 30 minutes we have a scheduled Skype call with Mark's Dad & Step Mom. They were traveling from West Virginia back home to Ohio. It will be nice to talk to them as it has been awhile since I have. They are really sweet people. You would have liked them & they would have liked you. I know that in your own way you already know them.
 Mom really have no updates for you again as I did not talk on the phone today much at all because everyone was here. I did talk to a friend on the phone & him & his family seem to be doing well. He is the one that always tells Mom to tell you hello. Other than that I spoke to Auntie Kristina as well. Things are well with her too.
 Everyone just called to let Mom know that they arrived safe & well & that they had a wonderful time today. That made Mom's day. We spoke about you a lot. Did you hear us talking? I hope so. It makes me smile when family & friends say your name & speak of you. It warms my heart. I love talking about you. At times it does make me sad but for the most part it makes me happy. I sure do miss you my sweet precious son. Holidays are not easy at all for me but I do try my best. We loved the holidays & always had fun. Mom will have to have some peeps for the both of us. Remember that time we had so many of them that we got a sugar rush just to crash an hour later? Those were great times! Memories now that I will cherish forever.
 Here is the daily prayer for today. March 27~ Greater love hath no man than this; that a man lay down his life for his friends. When I think about your example of love, dear God, I realize that love is far more than a warm emotion. It is a deep commitment to look out for another's best interest, even at one's own expense. Please teach me to put my pride & my heart on the line. Please protect me, Lord, as I love others in your name. Amen.
 The night sky is here & I will be looking at it in a couple hours. Mom will whisper to you as I always do. Be listening out for my voice & smile that smile I love & miss so very much. Hope that your evening is all that you want & need it to be. May you do all that is needed of you as well. Sweet dreams tonight & come see Mom in my dreams as well. You are forever in my heart, mind & soul & I love you to the moon & back & all the way around the world. You will always be my hero & my wind beneath my wings. Never forget this. Good night, Tyler.
 Always, Mommy xoxoxo. Muah!
