Dear Tyler,
Hi my sweet son! How are you doing on this late Saturday afternoon? It is already 4:30 pm and this day has just flown by. Mar and Mom were up early this morning with the pups. By 8 am it was already 80 degrees. That sure was just like Texas. It topped off today at 94 degrees. Mark has not been feeling good all day so we decided to stay home so he could just relax. Mom got up around 9 am after lounging in bed for a bit and started doing housework. I got quite a bit accomplished today. I was able to pay bills online, grocery shop, do laundry, fold it and put it away, dusting, vacuuming, moved some things around in the apartment, garbage, showered, and now I am ahead of time and dinner is already prepped and cooking. I even had the time to talk to Meme on the phone today for about 30 minutes. That was really nice. We had a good chat. She is on vacation now until July 9th. It is shut down where she works. Everyone will be here in 4 days. Everyone seems excited. We are planning everything accordingly to the weather. No one needs to get sick, sun stroke, etc.... We will have fun no matter what so none of us are worried at all. Mom will study tomorrow, Monday and Wednesday. Hopefully I can get a lot done in those days because I am taking off 3 days this week. That is why Mom is studying on Sunday. No rest for the wicked...lol. Mark will probably play his game with his brothers so it all works out. It will be another restful day tomorrow and not go anywhere. The weather will be warm again so that is fine by me. Hopefully Mark will be feeling better as well. Mom might go down to the garage and empty out the stuff that needs to be thrown out though but that is about all that is on my agenda for Sunday along with our scheduled skype call too.
Last night was very quiet. Again no one called us at all. We sat outside until about 8:30 pm which was really nice. After that we came inside and watch a little TV and then Mom was in bed around 10 pm. Tonight, we will probably do the same but depends on Mark. We may just watch a couple movies and call it a night. Mom hasn't spoken to Grandpa so I think I will give them a quick call tonight to see how everyone is there. Mom will let you know on tomorrows letter. Mom's eye is doing so much better today. Not as red as it was yesterday. Still pink but I think in a day or two it will be all better. Mom needs to just be careful with that body scrub....lol. Only Mom, right Ty? Not much else is really going on at all. Some days are just nice to have it peaceful and quiet. Today is the last day of June. Tomorrow is July 1st. Mom needs to be thinking of what to do for pictures for you on here. It is summer, beach weather, beautiful sunsets, and also your Birthday month. Hard to believe that you would be turning 28 years old in 30 days. Mom wishes she could still celebrate your Birthday with you. I enjoyed planning parties, bbq's, etc... for you. They always brought me joy and made me smile. You were and still are loved by so many. Mom especially. I love you to the moon and back and all the way around the world. To infinity and beyond. I miss you bunches and bunches. Mom has had the candle burning for awhile today already. Hope you see it burning bright for you my sweet precious son. Always remember that you are my hero and the wind beneath my wings. Forever you are inside my heart, mind, body and soul. Mom will be back tomorrow with another letter to you. I sure hope that your evening will be everything you need and want it to be. Come visit if you can while I sleep tonight. Mom needs to get going so I can finish dinner. Until tomorrow comes.....
Always, Mommy xoxoxo. Muah!

Here is the prayer:
At that time Jesus said, “I praise you, Father, Lord of heaven and earth, because you have hidden these things from the wise and learned, and revealed them to little children.” Matthew 11:25, NIV
Lord our God, we thank you for your Word, which is light and strength to us. We thank you for all you give us. We thank you that we may be counted among the simple-hearted, among the children. We do not want to be anything great in the world. We want only to be with you as your children, helpless little children, watched over by you, the Creator and Father of all. Grant us your blessing. Help us in all that is good and right, also in our daily work, so that we can be your children and do what you have commanded. May your name be honored at all times, your kingdom come, and your will be done on earth as in heaven. Give us today our daily bread. Forgive us the wrong we have done as we forgive those who have wronged us, and lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil. For yours is the kingdom, the power, and the glory for ever and ever. Amen.

Dear Tyler,
Hi pumpkin! How are you doing on this Friday afternoon? Mom is doing okay today. I got a good amount of solid sleep last night but today my left eye is all red and it hurts. Mom uses a body scrub in the shower and I believe that I got one of the beads in my eye. Not cool. I will put a warm compress on it later this evening before going to bed and hopefully during the night while I am sleeping it will work its way out so that my eye goes back to normal tomorrow. Crazy stuff.... I can hear you laughing at me right now and it is making me chuckle. I can hear you say" Poor Mom...only you!" Mom's day went by pretty quickly. I was able to take most of the entire day and study. That was good. I submitted my exam this morning. I didn't really do the greatest on it but I passed with a B+ (84). Mom was hoping for a better score but oh well. I am now on my next exam. I am 22 questions into it. I will work on it over the weekend and then submit it at the beginning of next week. It will be nice to have a couple days off with everyone and just relax for the most part. The weather has changed and it is going to be a heat wave here.... in the upper 90's the whole time they are with us. Not sure what we will be doing now as that is pretty hot for most of them and way too hot for Bob to be out in it for a long period of time. We will figure it all out though. Mom is not worried in the least. Mark had a busy day today as well. he has a busy 2 days next week before vacation too. This weekend we will be really just relaxing and just enjoying the weather as it is suppose to be in the 90's as well. We will go do our usual and grocery shop but that is about it. We have a skype call with Tubal and Karen Sunday evening as well. That is always a good time too. Mom will keep you updated as to how things are over the weekend.
Last night I did speak to Meme and Bob but not Grandpa. I was surprised at that but I am sure he is pretty tired with working in this heat. I am sure he will call tonight or at least over the weekend. Meme is good and excited to come back down here for a few days. Bob sounded good too. Aunt Beck called today to check in and that was nice. We chatted for a bit and then Mom needed to get to studying and she needed to get going as well. we will touch base again before everyone is here next Thursday. Bean is doing about the same. Not better but not worse either. Mom will find out how Great Grammy is over the weekend. I hope she is doing better. That is about all I have for today on our family.
Mom will be sure to light the candle for you in a little bit. I will whisper to you as I always do later this evening as well. Smile for me when you hear my voice and I will smile back to you. Mom is hoping that you have a peaceful evening tonight. I hope you get to do all kinds of new things and go to places you want to go to. May you also do all the things that are needed of you as well. If you can, come visit Mom in my dreams tonight. Have fun while I sleep. Mom is hoping to see a pretty painting in the sky this evening. There was a pretty one last night after the all the rain we had but I missed it. I saw the last piece of it. Hoping tonight I can see the whole thing and get some amazing photos to share with you again. I have been seeing the moon the last few nights and that is exciting. I think that Mark and Mom will sit outside for a bit tonight before watching TV. I will be looking for the stars. I know you are shining bright up there for all of us who need it. I really miss you so much. I love you to the moon and back and all the way around the world. You will always be my hero and the wind beneath my wings. Forever in my heart, mind, body and soul as well. I will be back tomorrow with another letter to you but for now Mom needs to get going as it is 5:35 pm and guess what? Yup... pups are fed but dinner is not done for Mark and Mom. Day 4 of studying late. Continue to watch over us my sweet precious son and fly high and free. Send me those signs. Thank you! Until tomorrow comes.....good night and sweet dreams.
Always, Mommy xoxoxo. Muah!

Here is the prayer:
But I will sing of your strength, in the morning I will sing of your love; for you are my fortress, my refuge in times of trouble. O my Strength, I sing praise to you; you, O God, are my fortress, my loving God. Psalm 59:16–17, NIV
Lord God, we glorify your name. How we wish our voices could ring out over all the world, telling of the great things you have done for us, praising you that we can come to you in Jesus Christ, that we can worship, honor, and thank you for all your goodness! Safeguard all your children so that they hold to faith and remain true to the message of the gospel. May we thank and praise you for all you have done this day and for your working in the hearts of many people who are still unknown to us. Your Spirit rules and calls people, to bring them to you, the Father in heaven. Watch over us and continue to bless us. Help us who belong to your people, and protect us through the night. Amen.

Dear Tyler,
Hi pumpkin! How are you doing on this Thursday evening? Mom did it again... 3 days in a row where I have studied up until 5 pm. It actually is after 5 pm right now and boy Mom sure is tired. My head hurts and my eyes are sore from looking at the computer for so long. The weather hasn't helped much either. Since around 6 am it has been raining pretty hard and heavy. Lots of thunder and lightning as well which has scared the pups for almost the entire day. I can tell that tonight is going to be a very early evening for Mom and Mark. He got home last night around 8:30 pm so that wasn't so bad but he still have work to do when he got home. He stopped around 11 pm and we both went to bed. Mom was so tired that she crashed hard. I think I fell right to sleep and only woke up just a couple times during the evening. I need to get some more good sleep tonight. I am finishing up my exam tomorrow and submitting it so hopefully I passed it. Mom is crossing her fingers for sure. This one was a toughie. I know you will be with me when I do submit it so I thank you.
Mom just realized that there are only 2 more days left in this month and Sunday it will be July 1st. Somehow Mom is behind a week. Probably because last week so so hard on Mom and that is how i lost track of the days and time. Mom is hoping that you liked all of the pictures that I posted this month that had to do with some of your favorite things you loved....from family to music groups to movies to games, etc.... Mom enjoyed posting them with captions so that anyone who read them would know why and how you loved them. I am not sure what I will do for the month of July. Probably will be about the fireworks, sunsets and beaches. All the things that you and Mom loved. Times like these makes Mom miss you so much. I miss you every day and all the time but summer is tough because that is when we could do so much together and be outside. The next several days are going to be hot hot hot for us. They will be in the middle 90's and the humidity will make it feel like it is in the 100's. It will bring me back to the days in Texas. Mom is looking forward to the sun shining though. You know how much I love it. Grandpa, Debbie, Meme and Bob will be here again in 6 days. Mom will be taking the weekend to prep for it all. Grocery shopping, cleaning, etc.... I love when they are here though. I miss them very much too. It is nice to be closer now so we can see them more often but we still are 3 hours away. You know what I mean and how I feel. It was the same way when we were apart. Mom will have to watch the weather to see what it is going to be like those days and plan our outings accordingly for Bob. He doesn't do well in the humid and heat. He has a hard time breathing. either way we will have fun for sure and lots of laughs. Make sure to give us some signs that you are here with us. Meme is wanting to see a gorgeous sunset. Do you think you could give her one? Thanks my sweet precious son.
Mom doesn't have any updates for you at all because the phones have been quiet the past 2 days. I am sure that Grandpa will call this evening and Meme as well. If not then I will be sure to call them tomorrow or over the weekend to say hello and see what is going on. I will update you when I know of things. Mom needs to get going for now and get dinner going for Mark and I. Pups have been fed already. I sure hope that you come and visit me in my dreams tonight and that your evening will be filled with all the things you need to do and want to do. Have fun while Mom sleeps tonight! I miss you like crazy and I love you to the moon and back and all the way around the world. You will always be my hero and the wind beneath my wings. Forever in my heart, mind, body and soul. Mom will light the candle in a few minutes and I will whisper to you later this evening. Smile for me and I will smile to you. I will be back with another letter to you tomorrow afternoon so until tomorrow comes.... good night and sweet dreams my bright shining star.
Always, Mommy xoxoxo. Muah!

Here is the prayer:
All of creation waits with eager longing for God to reveal his sons. For creation was condemned to lose its purpose, not of its own will, but because God willed it to be so. Yet there was the hope that creation itself would one day be set free from its slavery to decay and would share the glorious freedom of the children of God. Romans 8:19–21, TEV
Lord God, we thank you for all you reveal in your creation so that our lives may be fruitful. Reveal your wisdom and strength among people everywhere so that death and destruction do not have their way, but your will, your love, your mercy shall prevail. Let our age learn that power belongs to you and not to men, and that you will at last fulfill all your promises of good. Your day of justice and holiness will break in, and all misery will be removed through your great mercy. Watch over us as you have done till this hour, and keep us safe during the night. Be present and carry out your will wherever there is misfortune. May your will be done on earth as in heaven. Amen.

Dear Tyler,
Hi my sweet son! How are you doing on this Wednesday early evening? Yup... Mom did it again and studied until 5 pm. Two days in a row and now I am behind in doing my evening routine but that is okay for tonight as Mark is at his client site doing their cutover. He has been gone since very early this morning and won't be home until late this evening. Mom just needs to feed the pups and make dinner for herself and I will do that after I get done writing to you for the night. well, actually, Mom looked at the clock and saw that it was after 5 pm so I just fed the pups and prepped my dinner. I am waiting for the oven to preheat and then cook it. I should be eating in about 40 minutes. That gives Mom plenty of time to write to you and get the pups settled in for the evening. It is pretty quiet here all day long and even now. The clouds have been in the sky all day long and it has been pretty gray for the most part. I know that we are suppose to get some rain later this evening and then all day tomorrow. From what I hear it is suppose to be heavy at times. Mom is in for the day anyways so it can rain all it wants to...lol. The wind is picking up outside as well and the leaves have turned on the trees. All signs that rain is on its way. Mom will be having a pretty quiet evening tonight. I will have dinner and watch my DVR shows. I have so many so that will keep me occupied for the night until it is time to go to bed. Like Mom said above.... I have no idea when Mark will be getting home. I sure hope that it won't be an 18 hour day because he just had one of those a week ago today. He is already working on 9 hours already. I thought I would hear from him but not yet. He will call when he can though. Mom is getting used to that....unfortunately.
Last night Mark and Mom decided to have another night where we didn't have TV on until later in the evening. We had dinner, Mom cleaned up and then we decided to play another game of Chess. Mark one the first game and then it was getting late so Mom just let Mark win the second game...lol. After that was done, Grandpa called and we chatted for a bit. All is well there. He was saying that they are still having issues with the nursing home where Great Grammy is. Doesn't surprise me in the least. I know that is the only place where she can be and that is really not a well-liked home. Mom hopes that she gets better but by the sounds of that, that is pretty grime. Mom will be going to see her when I am there in a month. Makes me sad that she has to be treated that way. She also has had some of her things stolen as well. I remember having to deal with that with your clothes and belongings. It made me mad then too. Makes me sick to know that there are people that do that and worse....ugh! All I can say is karma will come and get them. Meme called today. She is just not having a good few days. She is upset with Bob again because he is forgetting his medicine, she hasn't heard from the doctors yet either. I try to talk to her to calm her down but she just doesn't want to listen. She just gets more upset so Mom doesn't know what to do anymore. If you can help with that guidance that would be super my sweet precious son. Thank you. Mom will touch base with everyone else in the next couple of days or over the weekend. It just has been busy with me studying every day for long hours and then needing to do everything else. I try to do my best. Some understand and then there are some that don't.
Mom will be back to studying all day tomorrow and again on Friday. I am trying to do what I can as next week will be just 3 days of studying because everyone will be here again for 4 days and Mom will get to take a couple days off to be with them. I can't wait. It will be so much fun to have them here again for longer this time. The weather looks to be gorgeous on those days too so that is just a big extra bonus for us all.
I will light the candle before I have dinner tonight and I will whisper to you as I always do later. Be listening out for Mom and smile for me and I will smile back to you. I will be back tomorrow afternoon with another letter as well. Mom hopes that your evening will be everything that you need and want it to be. Have fun while I sleep tonight and come visit or sit beside me while I get some rest. Thank you pumpkin! I miss you so much. I love you to the moon and back and all the way around the world. You are my hero and the wind beneath my wings. Forever you will be inside my heart, mind, body and soul. Mom needs to get going now as my dinner will be done very soon. Continue to watch over us and continue to fly free. Until tomorrow comes..... good night and sweet dreams.
Always, Mommy xoxoxo. Muah!

Mom will be having a pretty quiet evening tonight. I will have dinner and watch my DVR shows. I have so many so that will keep me occupied for the night until it is time to go to bed. Like Mom said above.... I have no idea when Mark will be getting home. I sure hope that it won't be an 18 hour day because he just had one of those a week ago today. He is already working on 9 hours already. I thought I would hear from him but not yet. He will call when he can though. Mom is getting used to that....unfortunately.
Last night Mark and Mom decided to have another night where we didn't have TV on until later in the evening. We had dinner, Mom cleaned up and then we decided to play another game of Chess. Mark one the first game and then it was getting late so Mom just let Mark win the second game...lol. After that was done, Grandpa called and we chatted for a bit. All is well there. He was saying that they are still having issues with the nursing home where Great Grammy is. Doesn't surprise me in the least. I know that is the only place where she can be and that is really not a well-liked home. Mom hopes that she gets better but by the sounds of that, that is pretty grime. Mom will be going to see her when I am there in a month. Makes me sad that she has to be treated that way. She also has had some of her things stolen as well. I remember having to deal with that with your clothes and belongings. It made me mad then too. Makes me sick to know that there are people that do that and worse....ugh! All I can say is karma will come and get them. Meme called today. She is just not having a good few days. She is upset with Bob again because he is forgetting his medicine, she hasn't heard from the doctors yet either. I try to talk to her to calm her down but she just doesn't want to listen. She just gets more upset so Mom doesn't know what to do anymore. If you can help with that guidance that would be super my sweet precious son. Thank you. Mom will touch base with everyone else in the next couple of days or over the weekend. It just has been busy with me studying every day for long hours and then needing to do everything else. I try to do my best. Some understand and then there are some that don't.
Mom will be back to studying all day tomorrow and again on Friday. I am trying to do what I can as next week will be just 3 days of studying because everyone will be here again for 4 days and Mom will get to take a couple days off to be with them. I can't wait. It will be so much fun to have them here again for longer this time. The weather looks to be gorgeous on those days too so that is just a big extra bonus for us all.
I will light the candle before I have dinner tonight and I will whisper to you as I always do later. Be listening out for Mom and smile for me and I will smile back to you. I will be back tomorrow afternoon with another letter as well. Mom hopes that your evening will be everything that you need and want it to be. Have fun while I sleep tonight and come visit or sit beside me while I get some rest. Thank you pumpkin! I miss you so much. I love you to the moon and back and all the way around the world. You are my hero and the wind beneath my wings. Forever you will be inside my heart, mind, body and soul. Mom needs to get going now as my dinner will be done very soon. Continue to watch over us and continue to fly free. Until tomorrow comes..... good night and sweet dreams.
Always, Mommy xoxoxo. Muah!
Here is the prayer:
But just as he who called you is holy, so be holy in all you do; for it is written: “Be holy, because I am holy.” 1 Peter 1:15–16, NIV
Lord God, help us to be holy as you are holy, and free us from all the earthly things that try to torment us. Grant us your Spirit so that we do what is right. May we always hold your hand confidently. Protect your children everywhere on earth, and help them do what is right even if the whole world does what is wrong. Help us, so that all we do becomes holy and pleasing in your sight. Let your grace grow among us and among the nations, and let your hand be strong to bring in your day, your day when everything is made new. May your name be kept holy, your kingdom come, and your will be done on earth as in heaven. Amen.

Dear Tyler,
Hi pumpkin! How are you doing on this Tuesday early evening? It is already 5 pm and Mom is just starting to do the night routine things. I just got done studying and submitting my Exam 2. I received an 93 as a grade. I am very okay with that as these exams are pretty tough. Lots of research and essay questions instead of the usual. Mom also has started her Exam 3. I am on question 24 out of 49...so almost half way there! I will finish it up tomorrow and probably either submit it as well or wait until Thursday. Depends on how long it takes me to complete. There are 8-10 essay questions with this one as well. Anyways... enough of that!
The weather today looks to be nice outside but I am not sure as I have not been out just yet. We will be taking the pups out for their walk later this evening. The sun is shining bright and the skies are blue with no clouds so that is a good sign. Mom saw the moon last night for the first time in many of nights. That was a very nice surprise indeed! I whispered to you then when I saw it so I hope you heard Mom. I will whisper to you again later this evening so be listening out for my voice. Smile for Mom and I will close my eyes and picture that handsome face of yours and that sweet smile that I miss so much.
Today is June 26th. Another day that Mom remembers vividly. It has been 30 years since Grandpa, Mom and Audrey were in that horrific accident but yet it still seems like it happened yesterday. Mom remembers it all too well. The memories and images haunt me daily but again with all that I have been through, it has molded me into the person that I have become today. Mom has had many changes so far. I am not the person I was when I was 17 years old , 24 years old, or 42 years old. I am parts of her but that is about it. Lots of struggles, trauma, loss, grief, etc... has been apart of all those years. I am proud of who I am today and I think you would be proud of Mom as well.
Last night was not a typical evening for Mark and Mom. It started earlier in the day. Actually it was pretty much after I wrote to you that everything happened. Mom was in the middle of taking her Exam 2 and Mark hollars to me and asks me if I have internet. I told him yes and then seconds later... I lose it as well. We rebooted everything but still nothing. I called the company to see what was going on and I guess something happened that knocked out all the internet, cable and phones completely in the town we live in. They estimated it to be back by 7 pm last night. That was 4 hours of silence but it was nice. Mom and Mark enjoyed it. We actually had dinner and sat at the table which was a nice change. We took the pups for a really long walk and listened to everyone complain that there was no internet, cable or phones...lol! After all that we decided to play a game of Chess and Mom beat the pants off Mark. We haven't played in quite some time so I was surprised that I did win! Everything came back on around 7:15 pm and we watched some TV for a bit and then went to bed around 10 pm. Tonight will be an early night for us as Mark has a very long day tomorrow with doing a cutover in the evening. I hope this one will be the last of them for awhile for him. He has been going straight for the last 4 months with a cutover every week. Mom will light the candle for you in a bit. I need to go make dinner now that Mark is home from the office. I hope that you will come visit Mom in my dreams tonight or sit by me so that I can get some sleep tonight. May your evening be everything that you need and want it to be my sweet precious son. I miss you so dang much. No words can express just how much. I love you to the moon and back and all the way around the world. You are my hero and the wind beneath my wings. Forever in my heart, mind, body and soul. Mom will be back tomorrow with another letter to you so until then.... good night and sweet dreams my shining star.
Always, Mommy xoxoxo. Muah!
Here is some lyrics from a song that I think you will like:
And when the day arrives
I'll become the sky
and I'll become the sea
and the sea will come to kiss me
for I am going home
nothing can stop me now.
Fly high and free, Tyler xoxoxo

We proclaim to you what we have seen and heard, so that you also may have fellowship with us. And our fellowship is with the Father and with his Son, Jesus Christ. 1 John 1:3, NIV
O Lord our God, grant that we may have fellowship with you every day. May our hearts be ready to fulfill your commandments and to do what you want in all things. Hear our prayer. Hear and answer when we pray for the nations, for the whole world, and let your holy will be done. Remember all who are in distress, and lead them on the right way. May we go with joyful hearts wherever you lead us. Your name will be our help, your glory will come, and the world will be full of your love, your power, and your splendor. Amen.

Dear Tyler,
Hi my sweet son! How are you doing on this Monday afternoon? Mom wants to first start off by saying that I am sorry for not writing a letter to you on Sunday but the day was busy and the evening was, well, not the best and neither has today been for Mom this far. Hope it turns around though. I am keeping a positive mind. Yesterday Mark and Mom went out and ran errands but before doing that Mom did some cleaning and we took the pups for a nice walk. We left around 12 noon and didn't get back unto around 3:30 pm. We went shopping in a couple of stores and then hit the grocery store. we got back home and Mom put everything away and then started dinner as it was at that point already after 4 pm. Mom fed the pups, we ate, Mom did the dishes and we relaxed by watching TV because it was raining outside. Mom did chat with Meme for a few minutes though. They are doing okay. She is awaiting her results from the doctors office. That should be in the next day or two, Bob was sleeping a lot she was saying. Skittles is doing better but not 100% just yet. He did really good when he was here last weekend. He ate and everything. Meme was saying that he was not wanting to eat at all but he did for Mom. I didn't talk to Grandpa yesterday but I sure I will either later tonight or tomorrow. Mom knows he worked all day yesterday and Saturday him and Debbie went out and saw Great Grammy and did some shopping. Mark is doing well. He is busy working at the moment and will be busy for most of the week. He has a long day on Wednesday. Mom is doing alright. My tummy is giving me some grief today though. We had tried something new last night with dinner and I don't think it really sat too well. Mom will be studying in a little bit and tomorrow will be submitting her second exam in her new class. I am really hoping to do well in it but I am not to sure on this one. Lots of things Mom is not confident about. I am continuing to do my best and that is all I can do. Mom will keep you posted on that and everything else that takes place during the week.
It is June 25th. 5 years ago yesterday was your wake. So many came to pay their respects and to see Mom and our family. Today, 5 years ago, was your funeral. I remember it like it was yesterday. Mom might be feeling the way I do yesterday and today because of this. It was so hard letting you go. You were my everything and even though you are not physically here now, you still are. Mom found something a couple weeks ago and on Saturday evening Mark called me into his office. He told me to sit down as he had something to show me. I watched several videos of you when we went to Sea World at Christmas time back in 2009. You were singing away. Just watching it brought me back to that vacation. It was so nice to see you, to hear your voice but it was so hard as well. Mom had forgotten that I video a lot of that "Miracle" show that we saw but I am so glad that I did. I miss you so much. I love you to the moon and back and all the way around the world. You are my hero, my wind beneath my wings and my bright shining star. You will always be in my heart, mind, body and soul. Mom talked about you a lot this weekend. I hope you heard me. I will whisper to you tonight so smile when you her Mom and I will smile back to you. I will also light the candle tonight so know that is burning bright for you. I started a new one on Saturday. It smells amazing. It is Eucalyptus Mint. You would like it. It has a calming effect to it as well which is perfect for the evening time.
Today, Mom took off from studying and I actually cleaned out my closet yet again of clothes that were too big for me. I did pretty good. I got rid of 9 shirts/sweaters, 9 pairs of shoes and also 9 jackets. 3 bag fulls of stuff. Mom will be donating them as I usually do. I think I could do more but that is enough for now. I am sure I will do it again before Summer is done and Fall starts. It was cloudy and rainy up until an hour ago and now the sun is shining and the skies are blue. We had a rainy and cloudy weekend so seeing the sun shining again is pretty nice. Looks like the week will be either rain or sun/clouds but next week is going to be hot hot hot! We have 3 days right in a row where it is going to be 92-93 degrees! Wow! Just in time for the family to come back down again for a few days! Hopefully you will give us a beautiful painting in the sky when they are here. They would love to see one. Mom is putting her request in now...lol!
Well my sweet precious son.... Mom needs to get to studying as it is already after 2 pm. I at least want to get a couple of hours in before it is time to feed the pups and get dinner going for Mark and Mom. I will be back tomorrow with another letter though. Hope you night will be everything you need it to be and more. Come visit Mom if you can. Please continue to watch over us. Thank you. Fly high and free. I love you unconditionally, Tyler. Good night and sweet dreams.
Always, Mommy xoxoxo. Muah!

Here is the prayer:
May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace as you trust in him, so that you may overflow with hope by the power of the Holy Spirit. Romans 15:13, NIV
Lord our God, grant us courageous hearts, we pray. Grant that we may always find our strength and support in you and may bear with joy whatever the present days bring us. No matter how much evil occurs, we know that your peace is already prepared. We await your peace, and we are allowed to believe that everything will turn out according to your will and according to the good you have prepared for your people on earth. For in faith your people overcome the world, and at last through their faith others too may receive something from you and may lift their eyes to you, the God of truth, of justice, of salvation, and of peace. Be with us every day, Lord God. Help us. Bless us, and bless all who try to bring help where it is needed. Let us praise your name forevermore! Amen.

Dear Tyler,
Hi pumpkin! How are you doing on this rainy Saturday evening? Mom is going to make this a quick letter as I just turned my computer on for the first time today and it is already 5:45 pm. I just wanted to write you a little letter instead of not writing at all. Mom and Mark have been busy all day long today. We are just taking a break for a few minutes before our food gets delivered. We have managed to completely turn Mark's office around, Mom dusted everything and I vacuumed the entire apartment. Mom also did some cleaning out as well today. Lots of stuff will be going for "free" just so we don't throw it away. Someone somewhere will like the stuff and use it which makes Mom happy! we had an incident today as well.... We had the balcony door opened as it is rainy and cool today... Princess was going nuts and we couldn't figure it out so we came into the living room and low and behold there was a bird flying around in the dining room. Mom grabbed the pups and went into a room so that they didn't try chasing it while Mark out it out. The bird was so scare that it pooped everywhere in our apartment. Ugh.....that was a mess to clean up for sure. Mom finally got that all squared away, fed the pups and finally took a shower. We ordered dinner because it is so late and Mom really didn't feel like cooking so pizza it is! Mark also took my vehicle for an oil change and Ozzy to the vets. That was not a good thing at all. Ozzy was not a good boy. He actually barked the whole time and he bit the doctor. Mark said it was a mess. As you can tell we have had quite the day so far. Mom is exhausted and so is Mark. Guess tonight will be relaxing and going to bed early as we have to go grocery shopping tomorrow morning and then we will be home for the day as it will be another rainy one here. Mom is hoping you have a good night tonight. May it be filled with all kinds of things that you need to do and want to do. Come visit if you can my sweet precious son. Mom misses you like crazy. I have whispered to you all day today so I hope you have been hearing Mom. I will again tonight so smile for me and I will smile back to you. I love you to the moon and back and all the way around the world. Forever you will be in my heart, mind, body and soul. Mom will tell you about the updates tomorrow though as our dinner just got here. I will be back tomorrow evening with another letter to you...Promise! Until then.... good night and sweet dreams my bright shining star.

Dear Tyler,
Hi my sweet son! How are you doing on this Friday evening? It is 5 pm and the weekend for Mark and I has officially begun! We are not really doing anything overly exciting though as the weather is suppose to be rainy both days with possible thunderstorms both during the day and evening time. Mom and Mark have to take Ozzy for his appointment tomorrow for his yearly check-up and he needs a shot as well. He is not going to be a happy boy at all but we will make sure he gets lots of special treats to make up for it. Then Mom's vehicle has to go in for an oil change in the morning and later in the afternoon we will be going grocery shopping and then home for the rest of the weekend. Sunday will be the day that it is suppose to rain all day long so we will be staying in and doing house cleaning, rearranging things and working on Mark's office. All in all it will be a very productive weekend. Next week will be rough for Mark as he has another cutover in the middle of the week. Within the last 4 months he has done a cutover every week except for 3 weeks. That is a lot. Last night he did one. It was awful. It started at 5 pm and went until 2:30 am. Mark got about 5 hours of sleep after working almost 18 hours straight. He was back at it again at 8 am this morning. Mom went to bed around 11 pm last night and was up every 2 hours. It was crazy. I slept from 11 pm to 2 am and then I was up at 4 am, 6 am and then again at 7:30 am. Finally I decided to get up, fed the pups, make coffee for Mark and then I crawled back into bed for about an hour or so. Mom then got up, made breakfast, did the clean up, did laundry, got ready and took the pups for a nice walk. After all that I was able to hop on my computer to do some studying. I am almost finished my 2nd exam in my new class. It sure is a tough one. I am really hoping to get a good grade on it. A passing grade will be good though! Mom will be working on her studies all next week and hopefully I will be close to finishing this course up! The following week will be a short one to study because that will be the week of July 4th and everyone will be here again for 4 days. Mom will study on that Monday-Wednesday but that Thursday and Friday I will not. It will be a nice break for me for sure. I will have completed 4 courses from start to finish in a months time. Not too shabby! I am proud of myself with this and I know you are routing me on like you have from the start! Thank you my sweet precious son. I love you to the moon and back and all the way around the world. You are my hero and the wind beneath my wings. Forever you are inside my heart, mind, body and soul.
Last night was quiet so that Mark could work. Mom watched her shows that she taped but I did get a surprising phone call from Bean! That was so nice. We chatted for about 30 minutes. She talked about what has been going on with her and when her appointment was. It sounds to me like she has a thyroid problem but we shall she what the doctors say. She was saying that her and her BF have not been doing all that much seeings how he hurt his back not that long ago. They are doing well though and she sounds very happy so Mom is happy for her. Her BF wants to meet me. That will be nice. I would like that. No one else called last night so I will get in touch with them over the weekend to see how they are doing. This week is not a skype call so Mom will be able to chat to everyone! Not much else has been going on though. The weather was beautiful today. The sun was shining and the skies were blue. There was a nice breeze as well. Mark and I might go for another walk later this evening with or without the pups this time but not sure. If we don't do that then we will sit on the balcony for a bit to just enjoy the fresh air. I think it will be early to bed though so that Mark can get some much needed rest. Mom will be back tomorrow with another letter to you in the afternoon when we are all finished with our errands. Hope that your evening will be filled with all the things you want to do and also the things that are needed of you. Come visit if you can while Mom is sleeping. I will whisper to you tonight so listen for me and smile when you hear Mom. I will smile to you as well. I will light the candle in a little bit. I miss you so much, Tyler. Until tomorrow.... good night and sweet dreams.
Always, Mommy xoxoxo. Muah!

Hi my sweet son! How are you doing on this Friday evening? It is 5 pm and the weekend for Mark and I has officially begun! We are not really doing anything overly exciting though as the weather is suppose to be rainy both days with possible thunderstorms both during the day and evening time. Mom and Mark have to take Ozzy for his appointment tomorrow for his yearly check-up and he needs a shot as well. He is not going to be a happy boy at all but we will make sure he gets lots of special treats to make up for it. Then Mom's vehicle has to go in for an oil change in the morning and later in the afternoon we will be going grocery shopping and then home for the rest of the weekend. Sunday will be the day that it is suppose to rain all day long so we will be staying in and doing house cleaning, rearranging things and working on Mark's office. All in all it will be a very productive weekend. Next week will be rough for Mark as he has another cutover in the middle of the week. Within the last 4 months he has done a cutover every week except for 3 weeks. That is a lot. Last night he did one. It was awful. It started at 5 pm and went until 2:30 am. Mark got about 5 hours of sleep after working almost 18 hours straight. He was back at it again at 8 am this morning. Mom went to bed around 11 pm last night and was up every 2 hours. It was crazy. I slept from 11 pm to 2 am and then I was up at 4 am, 6 am and then again at 7:30 am. Finally I decided to get up, fed the pups, make coffee for Mark and then I crawled back into bed for about an hour or so. Mom then got up, made breakfast, did the clean up, did laundry, got ready and took the pups for a nice walk. After all that I was able to hop on my computer to do some studying. I am almost finished my 2nd exam in my new class. It sure is a tough one. I am really hoping to get a good grade on it. A passing grade will be good though! Mom will be working on her studies all next week and hopefully I will be close to finishing this course up! The following week will be a short one to study because that will be the week of July 4th and everyone will be here again for 4 days. Mom will study on that Monday-Wednesday but that Thursday and Friday I will not. It will be a nice break for me for sure. I will have completed 4 courses from start to finish in a months time. Not too shabby! I am proud of myself with this and I know you are routing me on like you have from the start! Thank you my sweet precious son. I love you to the moon and back and all the way around the world. You are my hero and the wind beneath my wings. Forever you are inside my heart, mind, body and soul.

Lord our God, in the name of Jesus Christ, who is close at our side as the risen and living One, we lift our eyes to you in prayer. Bless us. Bless us through your Word, and let our hearts become quiet in you. Free us from all restlessness and from the turmoil of the present age, for we belong to you, not to the world. We want to find peace in you and remain in you. You will care for us as your children, whom you will never forget in all eternity. Bless us and renew the riches of your grace in us every day, for you, O Lord our God, remain our Father. Amen.

Dear Tyler,
Hi my sweet son! How are you doing on this Thursday afternoon? The weather is another warm one out there today with the skies being blue with some puffy clouds now and the sun shining! Mom was able to get a little sleep last night but not much at all. Not sure what is going on but I was sleeping a lot better a few weeks ago. Mom is lucky to get about 4 hours of restful sleep each night now for the last 2 weeks. Hopefully that will change soon. It is going on 3:30 pm and Mom is writing to you early because I have to make an early dinner tonight because Mark has a cutover from 5:30 pm until whenever it is done. If I don't cook dinner early then I know he is not going to be eating and that cannot happen.
Mom took a "me day" today. I didn't study at all. I left the apartment around 10:45 am and I got home around 2:45 pm. Mom went and had her nails done and then I did some retail therapy. It was just me being alone but I had a fun time shopping around and looking at things in my 3 favorite stores. Mom bought a few things. This weekend it will be raining so Mark and I will do our grocery shopping after taking Ozzy to the vets for his shots on Saturday and then on Sunday we will be moving his office around. He wants to move his desk. This will be an all day project for sure. Mom will help him move the desk and then he is on his own with the rest...lol! All in all it will be a pretty laid back weekend so I am glad that I went out today. Tonight will be a quiet one while Mark is working so Mom will not be on the phone at all. I will have to call everyone to let them know that I will call them tomorrow night instead. Mom plans on taking a nice warm bath, having a glass of wine and then watching a little TV and catching up on my shows that I have on the DVR. The pups will probably cuddle with me and that is okay! Tomorrow morning Mom needs to have her oil changed in her car so it will be an early to bed for me as well. I sure hope you come visit Mom in my dreams tonight if you can.
Yesterday was pretty tough for me but I think I did well. Mom misses you so much my sweet precious son. It hurts every day that you are gone but yesterday especially. Mom was pretty quiet for the most part. Even last night I was but Mark understood. Mom asked you to send me a sign and boy did you ever come through for me. The painting in the sky was so gorgeous. There was color everywhere. Mom took a bunch of pictures and will share a couple on here tonight as you loved seeing the sunsets just as much as Mom still does. Thank you for the sign. It made Mom smile really big. Later I will whisper to you just like I do every night so be listening and smile for me. Mom has had the candle going all day again today. Looks like I will have to change it out though tonight. Another one is done! I sure hope that your night tonight will be filled with all the things you need to do and want to do. Have fun while I sleep. Continue to watch over us please. Thank you.
Here are some updates for you......Grandpa and Debbie are doing well. She is going to get her tire changed tomorrow from last weekends ordeal. Grandpa is working a lot still but he is well. He is keeping busy. Meme goes to the doctors on Saturday so we should find out what is going on next week. Bean still is the same. Her appointment to her new doctor is in the middle of July. Bob is about the same. Tired a lot and the warm weather doesn't help him at all. Aunt Shirley still needs to have a few tests done to see what is going on and her eyes are really getting worse. Great Grammy did have a stroke sometime last week. Her voice is slurred now and her mouth droops. It is so sad. She has what they call Bell's Palsy. when Mom is there next month I will be making it a point to go see her. As time passes she is getting worse. She will be 98 years young in August. Aunt Beck is good and very busy. Mark as well. Lastly, one of our cousins is dealing with a lot of things right now. Mom is very worried. At this point I don't know what to do. I am hear to listen or if need be I can be there to help out in any way but I haven't heard a thing. Mom is praying for everyone though. That is all that I have for today but as the weekend gets closer I am sure to have more for you.
It is now 3:45 pm and Mom really needs to get her booty in gear and get off the computer to go make dinner. I will be back tomorrow though with another letter to you so until then.... good night and sweet dreams. I love you to the moon and back and all the way around the world. You are my hero and the wind beneath my wings. Forever you live in my heart, mind, body and soul.

Father! You have given them to me, and I want them to be with me where I am, so that they may see my glory, the glory you gave me; for you loved me before the world was made. John 17:24, TEV
Lord our God, we thank you that you have revealed your glory in your Son Jesus Christ. We thank you that today we can still see and feel the glorious grace which streams out from Jesus Christ in his victory over the world, the powerful help which benefits all those who find faith. Grant that a further glory may be revealed, faith dwelling in the hearts of all people, faith that can conquer all the need and suffering on earth, faith that is the power to look to you, to become inwardly quiet in you, and to hope in you at all times. Then your help will come quickly, more quickly than we can imagine. It will come on us unawares, for the Savior has said, “See, I shall come quickly.” We want to hope and believe and trust till the end. Amen.

Dear Tyler,
Hi my sweet son. How are you doing on this Wednesday afternoon? Mom has had her moments already today and throughout the day. Today is June 20th....the day you left the physical world and gained your Angel wings. This is the day that I dread every year for the past 5 years. Mom has been sent many messages on social media and some memories of you. That has been very sweet and Mom is thankful for that. I wrote you something on social media as well and Mom would like to share it on your letter this evening. I hope you have had the chance to read it. Here it is:

Dear Tyler,
My sweet precious son.... Mom doesn't even know where to start this letter to you today. My heart is shattered so much more today then every other day. I am reliving the horrific scenes in my head of what happened 5 years ago on this very day. I remember it all like it was yesterday. Every hour that goes by I know exactly where I was and what I was saying and doing. This was the worst day of my life EVER. In the early evening, Mom had to make a big decision and the hardest one no Mother should ever have to make. I didn't know what to do even though I had many family by my side. Was Mom doing the right things in honoring you the way you should be & deserved to be? I was listening to the doctors too, but I felt so alone and so sad, angry, hurt, etc... for what needed to be done. For a few minutes I wanted to be selfish but then I kept looking at you and I knew that I couldn't do that. I couldn't sit there and watch you. Mom didn't know if you were suffering so I did the only thing I knew... I let you go. At 5:35 pm your heart stopped and I lost you. I lost me. Everything went silent. I was numb. I was in a fog of what just happened. I couldn't move but yet I found myself walking around in circles. I couldn't say anything to anyone. Mom just lost the 1 thing in my life that mattered the most to me. I lost my everything. Every emotion was going through my body but yet I couldn't cry. My body was in shock. Mom remembers the nurse coming in and telling me that we needed to leave for a little while. Mom didn't want to but they made me. When I returned I remember sitting down and just looking at you, talking to you and then the tears flowed freely. Mom thought that maybe when I left and came back it would all be a dream, but it turned out to be a living nightmare...1 that I relive over and over on a daily basis. Mom sat with you for a couple hours. While talking to you Mom wondered if you were able to see me, if you were already in Heaven. I told you to be free, to fly high and never to look back. You deserved it more than anyone I have ever known. You deserved to be without limitations..... to walk, run, jump, and do all that you have wanted to do for so long. It was getting late and I knew that I had to be going but I didn't want to. Mom didn't want to leave you there alone. I started to walk out of the room but my hands clenched the curtain. I started to cry harder. Mark had to pull me away and he told me that everything would be ok but Mom knew nothing would ever be ok anymore.....Not ever!
June 20, 2018, 5 years later...1,825 days without you here with me. So much has happened. Mom struggles on a daily basis but Mom would like to think that you are guiding me and helping me through it all.
Mom read somewhere once that when a love one passes on from the physical world they continue growing from the Spiritual side. For this to happen we, in the physical world need to continue to live our lives as necessary. We need to laugh, smile, and as hard as it is we need to continue to move forward. This way you grow, learn, and do all the things you need to do wherever you are. When I read that I knew that I had to do everything possible. Mom would never want to hold you back from anything. I would never want you to have anymore limitations. You had too many, more than anyone should have here in the physical world. I want you to continue to soar, to spread your wings and fly....Mom knows you are doing just that. Mom knows you are completely free & happy.
I miss you so much still....More than words can say. I miss everything about you..... Your smile, your voice, the way you laughed, your beautiful brown eyes and those dang eyelashes that everyone raved about. I miss our talks, playing games with you, our walks, our vacations and yes.. I even miss our fights. Nothing is the same anymore. I am not the same anymore. I never will be again. You were and always will be my HERO!!!! I love you my sweet precious son. To the moon and back and all the way around the world.
I will continue to look to the skies at night time. To see the stars and the moon shining brightly. It lets me know that you are there watching over me & we are still under the same big sky. I will look for your " paintings" too. I will continue to whisper to you as I always do each & every night. I hope you hear me... I hope you listen for Mom's voice. Smile when you hear Mom and I will picture you smiling back at me. Fly high and fly free Tyler. Mom knows you are doing wonderful things up there. Please remember you are forever in my heart, mind, body, and soul. You are the Wind Beneath my Wings......
Always, Mommy xoxoxo. Muah!

Mom wrote that from the heart. I know everyone can feel my emotions with it. Meme called me earlier and said that it made her cry. She said that Mom needs to write a book because I know just the right way to say things. That was very nice of her to say and nice to hear as well. Megan also wrote something to you that I wanted to share as well. In her message she talks about Mom giving her a picture. It is of you, her, Chris and Ramon when you 3 were so little. It must be back in 2001 so 17 years ago. Here is what she said to you:
Hard to believe today is 5 years since u went to heaven. I still remember the night I got the message like it was yesterday. Such a bright young soul taken too soon, but I hope you're up there causing chaos like I know u still would be here. My brats would have loved you! They will know who u are tho. I have to thank your mom ( Sheri Hess ) for sending me this photo. We were so little. And I still talk about the SpongeBob balloon incident all the time, it makes me giggle a lot. And I'm thinking of your mama today she's a strong lady and we talk about u all the time. Love you T fly high
That was so sweet and special. I know you are smiling down on us all and if I know you, you are also shedding some tears. You were and still are loved by so many of us...family and friends. No one loves you more than Mom though. No one misses you more than I do either. Mom has had a candle lit for you all day today so I hope that you have seen it burning. I think I may have to get another candle though as that one is almost done. Mom plans on burning it until I go to bed tonight. Mom will be whispering to you as well later so I hope you smile when you hear my voice. Mom will force a smile just for you today. It is kind of hard. I have basically been in a fog all day long. Kind of numb really.
Mom has updates for you but they will wait until tomorrows letter to you. Today is all about you and how Mom feels without you. I love you to the moon and back and all the way around the world. I miss you like crazy my sweet precious son. You will always be my hero and the wind beneath my wings. Forever you will live inside my heart, mind, body and soul. Mom decided today to honor you in the way I knew how... with some of your favorites for insistence: Breakfast consisted of your favorites: Eggs and Bacon, Mom's snack this afternoon was Popcorn and tonight for dinner it will be Pizza. Maybe if I am not full dessert will be Ice Cream. I hope all these things make you smile as Mom remembers you not jut today but every day. I hope tonight you will get the chance to visit me in my dreams when I am sleeping. Mom sure would love that so much. Thank you pumpkin. I will be back tomorrow afternoon as I have an appointment for my nails in the morning. Please continue to fly high and free as I know you are and have been now for 5 years. Watch us all just like I know you do. Thank you for that. Mom will be back tomorrow so until then....good night and sweet dreams.
Always, Mommy xoxoxo. Muah!
Here is the daily prayer of the day:
But since we belong to the day, let us be sober, putting on faith and love as a breastplate, and the hope of salvation as a helmet. For God did not appoint us to suffer wrath but to receive salvation through our Lord Jesus Christ. 1 Thessalonians 5:8–9, NIV

Lord God Almighty, bring in the day, the day of Jesus Christ, through whom we shall be united. Then we shall recognize each other as fellow citizens, as brothers and sisters, and we shall have peace on earth. Give your Spirit anew, O Lord our God. Free and enlighten every heart so that each person can acknowledge the Word you have given and hold fast to all your promises, even in dark and troubled times. Be with us. Be with our people. Help us in our times, O Lord God. We wait for you. We await your peace, a new peace – not the old peace, not a return to comfort and selfish desires, but your peace – which shall bring us into the life of heaven, where we find Jesus Christ, the Living One, our Shepherd and Leader. Amen.
