Dear Tyler,

Hi my sweet son! How are you doing on this Sunday early evening? Mom is not going to lie as I am tired as all h*ll! Yesterday was a very long day for Mark & Mom plus Mark's friend came with us & I am so grateful for that. It was a huge help. We started out in the morning around 9 am & it took us 3 hours to get to Hooksett, NH ( where the toll booth is ) when it should have been just an hour to get there. The traffic was terrible. Bumper to bumper almost the whole way there. We arrived in NH 5 hours later. We went & visited Meme, Bob, Grandpa & Debbie for a very very short time ( like 30 minutes each ) & then we hit the road again as we knew we would get stuck in traffic yet again coming back home. We did indeed get the traffic & it took us 4 hours to get to our apartment. Everyone was exhausted but it was a much needed trip there to go get the vehicle from Mark's other friend. It is a nice one indeed & it was very sweet of his friend to do what he is for us. Mom also came up to NH yesterday to visit you as in 6 days on the 29th you would have been 27 years old. Mom didn't stay nearly as long as I would have liked to but I did leave you you Birthday Angel. I hope you like it & no one steals it from you. Mom is going to ask someone to bring you a couple balloons on Saturday to put on your bench & Mom will send a couple up to you from here on Saturday as well. Hope you get them all & you float on them like you have done in the past! Today, Mark & Mom really didn't do a whole lot as far as going out. We cleaned the new vehicle & took it down to go get it washed. We needed to go grocery shopping & run errands but I said nope... I was too tired to do that. We came home & I went on line & order groceries & things we needed from Walmart. The convenience of technology these days is sometimes wonderful & yet sometimes a pain in the butt...lol! Mark's friend left around 12 noon. Mom got up & made them breakfast... your favorite.... pancakes & bacon. Mom thought of you as I was making it & it made me smile. I miss you so much. I miss the little things more than ever these days. I miss you, your face, your voice, your laugh, your smile. I miss everything & the days do not get easier I am afraid. I love you to the moon & back & all the way around the world. To infinity & beyond! 
 Mom doesn't have much to update you on but what I do have is: Meme is in a lot of pain with her hip & back, Bob does not feel good at all & doesn't look good either. He can't hardly breathe & is so winded. He is retaining fluid & his legs & ankles are so swollen. Mom is so worried about him & Meme too. Grandpa & Debbie are doing good. She was headed out for work yesterday so I didn't see her all but 5 minutes. We got to see Grandpa's new shed that he bought. It is really a nice one & he is right proud of that thing...lol. Mark has an extremely busy week coming up & that worries Mom but I will do my best to just relax! Mom has a new class starting tomorrow as well. We shall see how that goes. Looks okay from what I have seen but I think it will be challenging as I go. Lots of writing in this one & the point value is really high so not much room to make a lot of mistakes. Good thing I have a lot of cushion with my grades for this class. Think I am going to need it. I know you will be with me every step of the way just like you always are so thank you. Please continue to watch over our whole family. Thank you my sweet precious son! You are my hero & the wind beneath my wings. I still get so much of my strength from you. Our bond & souls will never be broken....ever! Well that is all Mom has for updates today. Like I said a crazy week ahead for us so I am sure to have some for you as the week goes on! 
 The weather today is beautiful. 70's & sunny with a nice breeze. Loving it but the weather this week is going to be very cool. Fall is definitely coming. Mom's favorite season but I am not looking forward to what comes after though....blah! Hopefully tonight I will get to be able to see some stars & the moon shining in the sky. Maybe a painting from you as well. I will whisper to you as I always do so be listening for my voice. Smile & Mom will too! Hope you have fun tonight doing all the things you need to & want to. Come visit Mom if you can while I am sleeping. Thanks Ty! 
 Mom needs to get going as it is almost time for the pups to be fed & get dinner going for Mark & I. I am also house watching for my neighbor while she is on vacation. I have to water all her plants & feed her cat this whole week while she is away. I have to go over tonight & start it. Before Mom signs off for tonight here is a prayer for the day: We must remember that whenever God allows our hands to be empty for a season, it's because He intends on fill them. Amen.
 Mom will be back tomorrow night with another letter so until then... Good night & sweet dreams. I love you more than all the stars in the sky.
 Always, Mommy xoxoxo. Muah!
