Dear Tyler,

Hi my sweet son! How are you doing on this Friday evening? Mom just got done with another full day of class. I listened to the lecture, took 3 pages of notes, read the chapter, highlighted the keys things, did the 2 activities on the web site & a quiz. Tomorrow Mom is going to be taking the exam. My days are full with classes but I don't mind as the time goes by really fast. I am now writing to you as dinner is cooking. Later i will be relaxing & watching a little tv & then heading to bed as Saturday will be just as busy. Mark has a haircut & then the pups go to the vets. They have to have an exam & get all kinds of shots. They will not be happy with me but they will get over it. The weather today was so beautiful. It was in the low 70's & the sun was shining so bright. Hopefully the evening sky will be clear so that I will get to see the stars & moon shining bright. No matter what happens I will whisper to you as I always do. Be listening out for my voice, smile when you hear me & I will smile as well. 
 Mom talked to Meme & Grandpa last night on the phone. Things are going well with all of them. I also chatted with Auntie Kristina for a short bit today as well. Seems like our family & friends are good & life is treating them the best it can. I will probably talk to other friends & family over the weekend so I will have more updates for you in the next couple days.
 I received the new books that I ordered yesterday in the mail. They were downstairs when I went & walked the pups last night. One of the books is not what I thought it was going to be but the other 2 will do what I wanted them to. The 1st book I will be using is called: My daily Psalms & prayers. Here is the one for tonight. May 20~ My heart is steadfast, O God, my heart is steadfast. I will sing & make melody. Awake, my soul! The prayer for the New Year in this book was a commitment to seek to be glad in you & to let that gladness overflow into song. I pray now for a renewed steadfastness of heart that will continue to pursue the practice of praise. Let today be  day of song, of singing your praises because you are faithful & good to me. If you look around you & find only reasons to rejoice today, praise God for his goodness, for he is the source of every good gift. But if you look around & find only reasons to be upset today, praise God for his faithfulness, for he is unholding you in the midst of your trials. Amen.
 Mom thinks you will like this book just as much as I am going to. It is that time of night where I need to be going so that I can finish up with dinner & then sit down to eat. The days just go right by for me right now. It is crazy. Mom is hoping that you will have a wonderful night filled with all the peace & love that you deserve. May it be all that you need & want it to be. Come visit Mom in my dreams tonight. I love it when you do. It lets me know that you are happy & doing well. Remember you are forever in my heart, mind & soul. You are my hero & my wind beneath my wings. I miss you so much. I miss everything about you, all the things we would talk about & all the things we used to do. I love you to the moon & back & all the way around the world. I love you more than words could say. Good night my sweet precious son & have sweet dreams.
 Always, Mommy xoxoxo. Muah!

P.S. Today is Mom's friends son, Lucas' Birthday. He is in Heaven with you now. If you see him let him know he is loved & missed so much. Hope he goes & gives his Mommy a big hug because it is a very hard day for her.
 Also, Mom will be posting a couple sunset pics that a friend of mine took. I think they are just beautiful & I think you will love them just as much as I do xoxoxo.
