Dear Tyler,

Hi my sweet son! How are you doing on this Sunday early evening? Mom is doing fine but Mark is sick today. I think he is coming down with a cold & we all know how miserable that is. The weather today was so beautiful. I guess the next 3 days will be very nice so Mom will be taking advantage of it & getting outside as I know this kind of weather will not be lasting at all. 
 I am sorry that I didn't write to you last night but to be honest....Mom was celebrating life yesterday. I do it every day but especially on October 15th. I am not sure if you remember it or not but yesterday marked 20 years for Mom on being a Cancer Survivor. Yup... 2 decades. I remember the day so well though. I remember having to tell you that Mommy was very sick. You really didn't understand it at all as you were just 5 years old... Mom was 24. You were such a good boy through everything when Mom was in the hospital all those times. I drew my strength from you a lot. You gave me the will to fight. Our family & friends sure helped out too. I am so blessed. I don't take anything for granted, I don't judge anything or anyone & I love with all my heart. Mark & Mom didn't do anything special really but we got a lot of things done. The weather was perfect & we took the pups for a long walk. I looked at things differently... I smelled things that I don't necessarily pay attention too...it was just a good day for reflecting on many things on many levels. I didn't go on the computer all but for a couple minutes. I know you understand & there is no judging anyone where you are... I know you were right by my side. Thank you my sweet precious son. It means the world to me. 
 Today, Mom & Mark went & ran a couple more errands & then I went & got my nails done. We didn't stay out long as Mark was feeling really crappy & I felt bad. I wanted to get home so that he could relax & sleep if he wanted to. Right now he is watching the Cowboys play the Packers. Yup... Mom's team vs your team! The Patriots played earlier today. They won against the Bangals 35 - 17. Mom is sure that your team will beat mine. I will let you know tomorrow night as the game will not get over until 8 pm or so. In a few minutes I will be getting dinner ready & feeding the pups. Yes... it is the nightly routine. I know you remember that so well...lol. 
 Not too much for updates for you. Friday night Mom spoke to Uncle Gregg for 2 hours. It was so nice to catch up with him & what has been going on. Watch over him please as he could really use your help. He is struggling. Thank you. Our cousin, Tony, the one who lives in Florida is going to be a Daddy again. He also just proposed to his GF this morning. So big plans for them...a baby & a wedding next year in 2017! Mom was also told yesterday that Denise's ( you remember her....your future Mother-in- Law...lol ) Father-in- Law passed away. You met Bob several times. He was very sick towards the end. He went the way he wanted...peaceful & at home. May Bob R.I.P. now. Mom also spoke to Grandpa & Meme too. All is well there. We are hoping to get to NH in the next week or so before the weather starts turning colder & we start getting snow. Mom would love to go visit you for a bit. That is my main purpose of going there. I will let you know when I do go! I think we have a skype call later as well with Tubal & Karen. We should as we didn't have one last week. Think that is all I got for now but here are the 2 daily prayers that I have to write to you.... October 15~ Happy are those who live in your house, ever singing your praise. Happy are those whose strength is in you, in whose heart are the highways to Zion. There's a highway in my heart, dear Lord & it heads right to your home. When I need comfort, I go to you. When I need wisdom, I go to you. When I need courage or forgiveness or creativity, I hop on that highway & head in your direction. You are always there to meet me. Thank you, my Lord, for all you mean to me. A voice cries out: " In the wilderness prepare the way of the Lord, make straight in the desert a highway for our God. " Amen. 
 October 16~ Be strong & let your heart take courage, all you who wait for the Lord. O for a faith that will not shrink though pressed by many a foe. That will not tremble on the brink of any earthly woe, That will not murmur nor complain beneath the chastening rod, but in the hour of grief or pain will lean upon its God. A faith that shines more bright & clear when tempests rage without, that, when in danger knows no fear, in the darkness feels no doubt. Lord, give me such a faith as this & then, whatever may come. I'll taste even now the hallowed bliss of an eternal home. By faith we understand that the worlds were prepared by the word of God, so that what is seen was made from things that are not visible. Amen. 
 Mom is once again caught up! I do need to get going now so that I can make dinner. Mom is hoping that the moon & stars will be out tonight. Guess it is a special moon as well. Hope we get to see it. I will whisper to you as I always do so be listening out for my voice. Smile & I will too. Hope you have a few adventures along the way tonight. May everything be the way you need & want it to be. Come visit Mom in my dreams. Continue to watch over us all like I know you do. Fly high & free. I miss you more than I can express & I love you to the moon & back & all the way around the world. To infinity & beyond. Remember you are forever in my heart, mind & soul. You are my hero & the wind beneath my wings. Until tomorrow night.... Sweet dreams & Good night, Tyler.
 Always, Mommy xoxoxo. Muah!
