Dear Tyler,

Hi my sweet son! How are you doing on this very rainy Friday afternoon? Mom is doing okay. I am so sorry that I did not write you a letter yesterday. Mom never even turned her computer on at all. I was up early yesterday morning, made coffee, made triple berry muffins for Mark & I, did the dishes & then started right on the beginning of getting things situated for the office switch. I didn't think that I was going to do as much as I did yesterday but when I started, Mom was on a roll & didn't want to stop. I was able to get out & off my desk, got things off Mark's bookcase & onto his new desk, moved the bookcase into the living room & rearranged that & then came back into the office & rearrange things again. Mom got down at about 4:30 pm & then took a long hot shower because all my muscles were hurting from moving & bending all day long. Mark & Mom decided to order dinner out last night. That didn't work out so well. Our dinner came about 2 hours after we ordered it & yep... it was cold & disgusting. We ate it anyways as we were hungry. Mom was in bed at 8:30 pm & asleep by 10 pm. I was awake early again this morning. I got up & made coffee for Mark, did laundry, gave the pups baths as it is 60 degrees outside although it is raining, vacuumed, got ready, had lunch & now I am able to write to you. It has been a busy couple of days for me. Mark will be moving all my data over to my computer so that come Monday I will be ready to studying my arse off! I am ready to. I am completely focused & ready to rock & roll the rest of this course so that I can start a new class! This weekend it will be busy as well. Saturday, Mom & Mark will be building Mom's new desk & doing the complete switching around. Sunday we will be going grocery shopping & running errands. Somewhere in the middle of that we will walk the pups & eat. They will be long days but we got this! We have done it before. Mom will try really hard to write to you tomorrow even if it is a really short letter but if I don't that means we were busy all day & night & Mom will write to you on Sunday. Just wanted you & all my followers to know that! 
 Not much to update you on as the phones were not busy at all. The last couple nights have been very quiet. I spoke to Meme yesterday for a little bit while she was on her lunch break but really that is about it. Not much is new there. She just wanted to say hello & see how we were doing. Grandpa & Mom spoke the other night... Wednesday. He still sounds awful but he insists that he is feeling better. He was telling Mom that Debbie now works Monday - Friday night & has every weekend off. That is amazing! I bet she is going to like that so much more. Now it is just to get Grandpa to have all weekends off as well. He needs that! He doesn't need to be working weekends at his age. Mom will touch base with everyone over the weekend. I will have more updates in a couple days. 
 Boy, the weather is nasty outside. The rain is heavy & the wind is really whipping. I looked at the weather app & it says we are in a flood & windy advisory until Sunday morning. I believe that with what I am hearing. Wow! It is so dark outside as well. Mom is going to have to put a light on in a few minutes so that I can see what I am doing. That was a fast switch in weather. Earlier it was sunny & no wind. Please watch over us through all this. I don't mind the rain or other weather but the wind scares me. It is always windy here for some reason. It has to be because we are so close to the ocean. 
 Mom is hoping that your evening will be filled with all kinds of things that you need to do & may want to do as well. Come visit Mom in my dreams if you can. I would love that. Have fun while Mom sleeps. Continue to fly high & free. Mom will whisper to you tonight like I always do so be listening out for my voice & smile when you hear Mom. I will smile back to you. I miss you so much. More than words can say. I love you to the moon & back & all the way around the world. You will forever be my hero, my wind beneath my wings & my bright shining star. Forever, you will always live inside my heart, mind, body & soul. Here is a saying for the day today for you:
A chant for the day....  I am an unstoppable warrior who is strong & fearless. I live with courage & compassion in my heart. I wear my confidence like a shield to deflect all negativity. I am powerful & proud of who I am & what I do. I wake up each day positive & ready to take on a mission to achieve my goals & nothing & no one can stop me!
Mom will be back either tomorrow with another letter to you or Sunday. Until then.... good night & sweet dreams later on tonight. Before I go... here are the prayers for the day:
 May peace flow like a river through the very depths of your being. May joy rise within you like the morning sun. May strength awaken your heart and sturdy your steps. And may faith swallow up your every fear. God is with you at the break of day. He will not fail you. Though darkness and fear and weakness threaten to overtake you, they will not, they cannot because you belong to Jesus. He is your stronghold, your high tower, your deliverer, and your defender. He heals, reveals, corrects, and redirects. He’s your very good shepherd and will lead you safely through the storm. Trust Him with your whole heart today. 
  If you’re in a season of hardship and life feels like an uphill climb, may you stay the course until Jesus tells you otherwise. May you determine NOT to make any rash decisions that you’ll later regret. May you instead, fix your eyes on Jesus and take your cues from Him. May you trust Jesus to carry your burden so you can hold fast to His promises. May you exhale frustration and inhale God’s peace and provision. This season will pass. And you’ll come through it with strength, clarity, and conviction. Don’t take the enemy’s bait. Follow the Savior’s lead. You’ll be glad you did. Blessings on your night tonight!
 I love you my sweet precious son! 
 Always, Mommy xoxoxo. Muah!
