Dear Tyler,

Hi my sweet son. How are you doing on this Monday evening? Hope you are really some place warm & sunny or at least clear skies. Today was another nasty day where Mom lives. It was snowing when I woke up at 7 am & it has been snowing, sleet, freezing rain, hailing, & back to snow all day long here. The snow plows are out as I am typing this letter to you. It sure is a nasty day & night. Thank God that there is no high winds as there has been the last several days. Now all we need is to have some sunny days to melt all this dang snow. I think within the last couple days we have gotten about 10" or more. Definitely not what I was wanting to see in April but we have no choice in the matter. The weather is really screwed up these last couple of years due to El Nino. Guess NH got some snow today as well but not nearly the amount we got here.
 Today Mom was so busy with her testing. I knocked out 3 sections & actually just finished it up! I answered 68 questions & I got 2 wrong. I got a 96%, a 95% & a 100%. My grade is now at a 95%. I have 2 more sections to go. Tomorrow will be a tough one & tricky too so I will definitely take my time on it. It is all about the HIPAA laws. I can't believe that I will be finished by the end of the week. I had 45 days to complete it & I am on day 10. Not too shabby huh? I have said that you have been with me through it all & I know you have. Thank you so much my sweet precious son. I believe with you by my side I can do anything I set my mind too. I did chat with Meme really quickly on her lunch break. She is doing well & looks like she will be getting her new vehicle this week sometime. I am not sure if I told you or not but she chose the red color. Think you were channeling her with that one...lol. Lots of doctors appts for her & Bob this month so if you could keep an extra eye out for them that would be great too. Spoke to Grandpa last night & all is well there. Debbie is working a lot & guess she is enjoying the nights now that she is used to it. Mark is working hard as always & will be working harder more as the other guy that does his job is out for the next 3 weeks because he is having surgery. Please watch over us all like I know you do. Thanks pumpkin. I wanted to also let you know that lots of Mom's friends talk about you all the time & tell me to tell you hello from them. Mom has been reunited with a friend that I grew up with when I was a little girl. We talk quite a bit lately. She lost her son 8 years ago. He passed on his birthday. I remember when that happened. My heart broke for her. As you can tell we have a lot in common. Just want you to know you are still & always will be loved so much. You live inside so many of us & that makes Mom's heart sing. I smile at the thought of it. Hope it makes you smile knowing just how loved you are. I miss you so much & I love you beyond any words that I could ever say to you. Too the moon & back & all the way around the world. Always remember that.
 Here is your daily prayer for today. April 4~ Ointment & perfume rejoice the heart: so doth the sweetness of a man's friend by hearty counsel. A healthy friendship enhances our lives. What a blessing to have someone who wants to share all our joys & sorrow. We should continually strive to be the kind of friend God would like us to be----and the kind of friend that we would like to have. Amen.  
 Mom will not be seeing anything shining in the sky tonight. It is still snowing. Unreal.... just crazy. Mom will whisper to you as I always do so be listening for my voice. Smile when you hear Mom. I hope that your night is everything that you want & need. I hope that you get to do all that you have to do. Relax if you can & sweet dreams. Come see me in my dreams tonight. Mom would love it. Remember that you are forever in my heart, mind & soul. You are my true hero & Mom's wind beneath my wings. Good night, Ty.
 Always, Mommy xoxoxo. Muah!
