Dear Tyler,

Hi my sweet son. How are you doing on this Wednesday morning? Mom is writing to you right now because we are in for the rough weather & it has officially started. Right now it is sleeting & eventually it will turn to snow, then back to sleet & then freezing rain. The winds will be picking up as well. They will be 30-40 mph now through tomorrow morning. Keep us safe, please. Mom is crossing her fingers that we don't lose power as it is super cold here. Mom & Mark had to get up early this morning to take the pups to the vets. Nothing is wrong just regular visit with nail trimming. Princess did really well...never barked or nothing. Ozzy on the other hand was so long & mouthy. He would not stop barking. He really doesn't like going there at all. Princess just shakes & tolerates it. After we left the vets, Mom & Mark were suppose to have a day out & some fun but the weather changed all that. He has decided to work & I have decided to study while we are having this weather. We will have a rain check on what we were going to do today on another day. No worries. Safety is first when it comes to a storm. 
 Mom wanted to write to you now just incase things get worse. I wanted to make sure that I got a letter in & I didn't miss a day of it. That is really important to Mom. I feel very close to you when I am writing my letters & it hurts my heart when I have to skip a day for whatever reason. Mom tries not to do that but some days can't be avoided. Mom really doesn't have any updates or news to share with you on today's letter. Last evening was very quiet. The telephone did not ring at all. We had dinner & basically watch a couple shows on TV before we turned in & went to bed. Mom is thinking that tonight will also be a very quiet night indeed. I know that Grandpa will be outside snow blowing & shoveling so that Debbie can get in the driveway when she gets home from work later tonight & Meme & Bob will be out all hours of the night just to keep up with the storm so that Meme can go to work in the morning. The forecast says that in NH they will get 12-18" of snow & the heaviest snow fall will will be during the overnight making the morning commute tough. Mom is hoping that everyone up there will be safe during this storm. Mom also knows that you will be keeping a close eye on us as well & keeping us safe. Thank you so much my sweet precious son. I love you more than words can say. I love you unconditionally. To the moon & back & all the way around the world. I miss you like crazy as well. The last couple of days Mom has been talking about you to so many people. Nurse Dean had posted on social media that they were doing something at DHMC with the PICU again. Mom commented & then so many folks... nurses, doctors, etc... that knew you & Mom made comments back. It was so nice to catch up with them as it has been years. Some didn't even know that you had passed away. That was tough for Mom as they were asking questions but I answered them & got through it. Some said they were sorry, while others kept telling Mom that you were amazing & strong. Made my heart proud to hear those words. Mom knows it is true. You were & always will be my hero & the wind beneath my wings. You live in my heart, mind, body & soul forever & always. I hope you feel the love deep within your soul, Ty! I hope you never forget that feeling. 
 Here is the saying for the day today:  Sometimes what you thought would be...isn't....but what's going to be is better....hang in there....good things are coming to you!
 Mom is hoping that your evening tonight is filled with peacefulness & love. May you get to do all things that are needed of you & also get to do some things that you would like to do. Have some fun while I sleep tonight. Come be with Mom & visit me in my dreams tonight. Thank you so much. Mom will whisper to you as I always do so be listening out for my voice. I will smile to you & hope you will be smiling back to me. I will also light the candle for you tonight. It will burn bright just like I know you are shining bright for us. Mom will be back tomorrow with updates on how the storm went & any other updates that I may have for you as well. Fly high & free up there in the heavens above. Good night & sweet dreams my sweet Tyler!
 Always, Mommy xoxoxo. Muah!

Here are the prayers for the day:
  May you rest assured that God has used all of your past experiences to prepare for this particular season of life. You’re not who you once were. You’re stronger than you know. You’ll have what you need in the days ahead. Jesus has your back and He’s gone before you. Don’t spend too much time pondering the pain of the past. You’re still standing. The devil didn’t win. Get excited about the Promised Land before you. Yes, there’ll be giants in the land. But it’s a good land. Go take it, by faith. And rejoice along the way. Have a great day.
 Though most of the world has no clue what your call has cost you, Jesus does. Though few know how valiantly you’ve marched onward, even with a broken heart, Jesus knows. Though others may wrongly assess your struggles, Jesus sees you clearly, loves you dearly, and defends you fearlessly. One day God will vindicate you. One day, He’ll fully restore you. One day, He’ll claim you, bless you, and honor you before a watching world. Though you have troubles in this world, you will overcome them all. A bright future awaits you. Don’t lose heart. Sleep well tonight.
