Dear Tyler,

Hi my sweet son! How are you doing on this Thursday early evening? Mom is doing ok. My brain is all fried though...lol. The last couple of days have been really busy & hectic as I have been doing so many activities for my class & then all day today I have been taking 2 exams. This class sure is so challenging for me. I have not studied or anything ever in my life like I am now. I think Mom is doing well so far. I have taken 2 quizzes & got both 100's on them & then I have taken 3 exams...those grades are 94%, 88%, & 96%. My overall grade right now is 93% & I am on Honors. Hope it continues to stay that way. I need to complete this course with an 85% to be able to take the certification exam. I talked to you today..did you hear my voice? Thank you for being with Mom during the afternoon. It means so much to me, Ty. I am so sorry that I did not write to you last night but by the end of the day I was just so tired & I still have to take care of the pups & also make dinner & everything else. I was in bed at 9 pm or so & I think I fell asleep not that long after. These days of getting up at 6:30 am & doing everything that needs to get done during the day is a bit much. Mom is sure not used to it or either that I am getting old...lol. I think I will go with the 1st answer as I refuse to believe the 2nd one. Anyways....
 Mom really doesn't have any updates for you as again last night was quite quiet & I spoke to no one on the phone. Today has been the same way. Maybe over the weekend I will have updates for you. I would like to believe that everyone is doing fine...no news is good news. Tonight Mark & Mom were suppose to go to a paint night but Mom received an email stating that it was cancelled. That was such a bummer as I was looking forward to it but oh well. Maybe another time they will have it. I have really enjoyed painting again. I think of you when I do. I think somehow you are with Mom & you are helping me make decisions & color choices. You were so good at it but you just didn't believe Mom or anyone else. Mom has a few of your masterpieces hanging on the walls here. I smile all the time when I look at them...which is always. This weekend is going to be very busy for us but maybe just maybe I can squeeze a painting in. The pups will not be happy with me on Saturday as they have to go get shots. Princess has to get 2 & Ozzy has to get 4...poor things. Mom will make sure they get extra treats & hugs & kisses all weekend. 
 I am still awaiting the arrival of the new daily prayer books. I should be getting them in a couple days or so. I can't wait to see them. Not sure which I will start with but I have 3 books coming so that means I have 3 years worth...lol. It's all good. Maybe I will do a combo of a couple books during the letters...not sure but I will figure it out. Well, Mom has to get going as it is that time of the day to take the pups for a walk, feed them & then make dinner. Mom is hoping that your night is filled with all the things that you need to do & want to do. Tonight I will look to the sky to see if there are any stars & moon shining but doubt it as the sky has been so cloudy all day long. It's ok though as I will whisper to you as I always do. Be listening for my voice again. Smile & I will too. Come see Mom in my dreams tonight. I love when you visit me. Lets me know that you are doing well. I miss you so much. My heart hurts every day because I can't see you or hear your voice. Mom loves you to the moon & back & all the way around the world. Have fun wherever you may be & continue to fly high & free my sweet precious son. Remember you are forever in my heart, mind & soul. You are my true hero & my wind beneath my wings. Sweet dreams & good night, Ty
 Always, Mommy xoxoxo. Muah!
