Dear Tyler,

Hi my sweet son! How are you doing on this Tuesday evening? Mom is plumb tuckered out tonight so this letter is going to be short tonight so Mom apologizes in advance. I don't know what happened but Mom went to bed at 11 pm and was woken up at 12:30 am with Princess shaking and Ozzy being under the bed. Mom was up with her until 2 am and back up again at 7 am. Mom didn't go back to sleep. I stayed awake and lounged in bed for a couple hours before getting up, taking a shower, etc.... Mom was at the computer and studying by 11 am and studied all day long until just now. Mom submitted her final exam and I got a 90 on it. My final grade in the course was a 92 ~ A. Mom is happy with that. I also started my new class after and read the first 2 chapters and took the first exam and got a 94. Mom was happy with that as well. I continued as I was on a roll and started the next chapter and also started on the next exam and I am almost finished with that one too. I will finish it up tomorrow and submit it. I think I over did it today and Mom knows that I will be going to bed early tonight to get some good sleep. Hopefully the pups will let me tonight. 
 Mom wanted to let you know that I was told today that Grandpa's cousin's wife, Hattie lost her battle to cancer last night. She gained her Angel wings. Aunt Shirley is pretty upset about it along with the rest of our family. May Hattie R.I.P. now for eternal life. She was loved and will definitely be missed. Not much else for updates today. The phones were quiet last night and that was good for us here. The phones have been quiet pretty much today. I did chat with Grandpa to tell him the news about Hattie, Aunt Shirley called me as well and then my friend, Gary called to say hello. All the conversations were short but nice. Mom plans on relaxing this evening and doing nothing at all. I will light the candle for you in a bit and I will whisper to you just like I do every night so smile when you hear Mom and I will smile back to you my sweet precious son. Mom is hoping that tonight you will have a peaceful evening and perhaps get to do things that are needed of you and things that you may want to do as well. Have fun and come visit Mom in my dreams tonight if you can. I will be back tomorrow with another letter to you. Please always know and feel it in your soul that you are missed so much by Mom and all our family and friends. I love you to the moon and back and all the way around the world. You are my hero, the wind beneath my wings and the shining star that lights my way. Forever you will be inside my heart, mind, body and soul. 
 Mom is going to get going for now as I need to get dinner going but also my eyes are just so tired from not sleeping and being on the computer all day long. I need to just go and relax for the night. Until tomorrow comes, good night and sweet dreams pumpkin.
 Always, Mommy xoxoxo. Muah!

Here is the daily prayer:

Many, Lord, are asking, "Who will bring us prosperity?" Let the light of your face shine on us. Psalm 4:6, NIV

Lord our God, with all our hearts we come before your countenance. Our hearts shall always be in your presence, asking, longing, and believing that you will guide our affairs aright. Protect us, for you are our God and Father. Protect all who are in danger or who must go into danger. Make known your great love and your living presence to the hearts of the dying. Draw our hearts together so that we may have community in you, our faith and hope set on you alone. Protect us during the night, and help us to be at peace about all our concerns because they are in your hands. Every concern of every person is in your hands. We ourselves are in your hands, Lord God, our Father, and there we want to remain. Your hands can heal and restore everything. Praised be your name! Amen.
