Dear Tyler,

Hi my sweet son! How are you doing on this Tuesday afternoon? Mom is doing okay! The weather has been sunny today & cold. We ended up getting roughly 18" of snow out of that storm yesterday. It finally stopped sometime around 10 pm. It is crazy. Every one is trying to get out & on the roads but every one is so buried deep in the snow. Mark & Mom haven't even began to unbury ourselves out of this one. Will do it either later this evening or tomorrow. The sun has been shining all day long & has melted the snow & ice off our windows so at least we can see out of them now. Yesterday we could not see a thing.  Between the wind, the snow & the gray plus everything on the windows we were inside & couldn't look out. Made for a very long long day & night. Mom was seeing on the weather that they are indeed tracking the 4th Nor'easter for next Tuesday into Wednesday. This storm could be just like this last one or even worse. They have not named it yet but they are calling it a potential wintercane. I didn't know what that was so I looked it up & it is like a hurricane in the North East. That does not sound good at all. These are crazy. March has not been kind to us at all. If we get this next storm & it does not go out to sea we will be looking at snow until June. Right now we have 30" of snow from the last 2 storms. Mom is so tired of it...ugh! Thank you so much for keeping us safe & sound. Mom appreciates it so much. It is scary when the snow is flying & the winds are whipping like 50 mph. Not something that I have been used to at all. This year has been terrible for the wind. 90 mph during Storm Riley & 50+ mph winds for Storm Quinn & Storm Skylar. The poor trees are so damaged. Some are bent right over because the snow is that wet & heavy. Meme was saying that they did not get as much as they were suppose to so that is good for them. The other side of the state here only got 4" of snow & it is almost all gone. Boy are they lucky too...lol! Nothing is melting here at all. At some point it will. What will probably happen will be is that we will have no Spring & it will just jump right into Summer. Mom likes Spring & loves summer so I don't care... just no more Winter please. It will officially be Spring in 6 days... right when we could get the next storm. That is not very nice is it??? Anyways.... all our family & friends are safe from the storm. Everyone made it home safely last night that drove in it. Mom will touch base with Grandpa probably later this evening to say hello as I didn't chat with him last night. From what I know everyone appears to be doing well. Mark is still busy as always with work & Mom is studying a few hours a day with school. Mark will go to the office for a few hours tomorrow while Mom will be out & about running errands & having a nail app't. Mom will write to you later in the afternoon. 
 This morning Mom saw on social media that Mr. Stephen Hawking passed away & received his Angel wings. I am not sure that you would remember who he was right now but just incase you don't, he was a brilliant man that like you did, lived most of his life in a wheelchair but that never stopped him from living his life, just like you didn't Tyler. He was a man who taught many. He was a Professor. He will be missed. Stephen Hawking may you R.I.P. for eternal life now & fly high & free. Mom bets that he will not be sitting down anytime soon, just like you Ty. He sat for too long & I bet he will fly like you do! Mom will be posting a quote from him tonight on here to honor him & also Mom will be posting something that Aunt Jacqui posted to my timeline on social media. It speaks volumes. It gave me tears when I saw it. I know you will understand it & I think it is pretty accurate. 
 It is getting to be already 4:45 pm & Mom needs to get going & get the pups fed, prep & make dinner for Mark & I & then relax for the evening. I am hoping to get some sleep tonight as I didn't get much last night at all. Mom hopes that your evening will be everything & more of what you need it to be. Have fun while I am sleeping tonight. Come be with me or visit me if you can. I love you so much. To the moon & back & all the way around the world. You are my hero & the wind beneath my wings. Forever you will live on in my heart, mind, body & soul. I miss you so much, Tyler... my sweet precious son. I always will. Mom needs to get going but before I do I found something I wanted to write to you so here it is:
 God Bless A Mother..... God Bless the mother who has lost a part of herself now. Her child is gone and yet she knows she must go on somehow. She'll never be who she once was, before her child was taken. And some days she can't help but feel her heart has been forsaken. They say You gave the hardest tasks to those You know are strong but her task is so painful, Lord.... it's one that lasts a lifelong. Please help her rise each time she falls, Give courage for her fears. Have angels hover ever near to dry her endless tears. Keep her close, within Your arms each moment they're apart. Please give her comfort while she grieves....God, sooth her aching heart. Here are the prayers for the day as well:
  May the phrase 'Let go and let God' take on a whole new meaning for you. May you learn to rest while He works on your behalf. May you understand your role in this Kingdom story and do only what He tells you to do. May you live free from the bondage of others' opinions so you're free to love them the way Christ does. May others be so drawn to your healed heart that they come to know Jesus for themselves. Have a great day.
  May the Lord dig up the stones of pain, regret, and angst from your soil and deliver you once and for all. May He turn over the soil of your heart and plant new seeds of faith, vision, and purpose specific to your life's calling. May He heal those deep places that nag you. May He strengthen those weak places that leave you feeling vulnerable. And may He overwhelm you with a fresh revelation of His love so you can believe that NOTHING is impossible with God on your side! Sleep well tonight.
 Until tomorrow, good night & sweet dreams my bright shining star.
 Always, Mommy xoxoxo. Muah!
