Dear Tyler,

Hi pumpkin! How are you doing on this Wednesday afternoon? It is 3 pm and Mom finished her exam and submitted it! I sure hope I do good on it and did what the instructor wanted me to do! Guess we shall see in a day or so...lol. Mom wanted to finish it up so that come Monday I would be ready to start fresh with new chapters and a new exam. Mom is hoping to be pretty much settled in at the new place come Sunday morning. I have 2 days to reach that goal so I am going to try my hardest! The countdown is on and we are at 42 hours before all this chaos starts! Today, Mark started his vacation and we were suppose to do a few things but the weather just has been so nasty that he decided that we would get up early tomorrow and do it all. We have the time as there really is not much left to do. Mom will do the last bit of laundry and move things to the rooms so that nothing is in the closets or back rooms just in the front except for the big furniture! It has been raining like crazy today. It rains, then stops, then rains, then stops. The sun is trying so hard to come out but no luck. Yesterday afternoon though was a different story. It rained a lot and at one point the sun was shining with it still pouring rain. Mom said... there has to be a rainbow so I went looking for it and low and behold I sure did find not one but a double full rainbow. Oh Ty it was so beautiful. Mom got some pictures but they really didn't do it justice at all. That is the 3rd rainbow that I have seen in 4 years here. I sure will miss this beautiful view that we have had but Mom knows it is time to give it up and let someone else enjoy it for awhile. What a beautiful send off though to see that yesterday. We had a few good thunderstorms as well. They were severe too and the pups were so scared. Mom held Ozzy and Mark held Princess. I guess there was a water spout tornado that touched down in Boston and a tornado warning where your Aunt Ann and Uncle Ray live. It is scary. Everything and everyone is fine though. All storms stopped at 8:30 pm. We went to bed at 10 pm because we all were exhausted. Tonight will be an interesting night....after Mom is done writing to you I will be getting things mostly set so that tomorrow I will not have much to do except let my body relax and unwind before the next 2 days of unpacking! Tonight will be quick calls to Meme and Grandpa and then watching TV and then going to bed early so that we can get up early to finish things up. Mom has yet again no updates for you at all. I feel terrible but everyone knows how crazy busy we are and I don't think they want to bother us at all. Mom understands that so that is why I will reach out to them briefly. Maybe in a day or two I will have something for you but I know that you already know what is going on as you see everything now. That you for always being by my side and everyone else's. It means so much to me. Please continue. 
 Just a few minutes ago, Mom had a few more marshmallow peep ghosts. They are just so good. I had such energy and a sugar high last night...lol! Mark was laughing at me. Guess he will be doing the same again tonight. I had a lot of energy and I got a lot done too. Mom crashed hard though later. That is a good thing. I thought I would sleep better than I did but nope. Weird for sure but maybe tonight. Mom just has a lot on her mind. I seem to be second guessing everything now and that is not cool. You know how I get though. I make decisions and then always second guess if I am doing the right thing. I just need to calm down and know it is for the best. 
 Mom has had the candle lit for you since early this morning. I will be burning it tomorrow to but I don't think I will get to burning one on Friday unless I find them because this one is almost finished. If I don't get to it then I will be burning one on Saturday for sure. Just bare with me through this transition. Thank you so much my sweet precious son. I miss you so much and I love you to the moon and back and all the way around the world. Forever you will be my hero and the wind beneath my wings. You will always live inside my heart, mind, body and soul. Mom sure hopes that you have a fun night tonight while I try to get some sleep. If you have time come visit me in my dreams or sit beside me. Many hugs and kisses to you and all our family, pets and friends that are with you. I love them all and miss them too. Mom will be back tomorrow to write to you again but for now time is ticking and I need to get a few things done before it is dinner time. Until tomorrow comes...good night and sweet dreams.
 Always, Mommy xoxoxo. Muah!

P.S. Red Sox are in the Worlds Series! Game 1 was last night... they won 8-4. Tonight will be Game 2. Hope they keep winning. Grandpa will be so happy!

Here is the prayer for today:

For the Father himself loves you, because you have loved me and have believed that I came from the Father. John 16:27, RSV

Dear Father in heaven, we thank you that with our poor, faulty, sinful, and death-ridden lives we may find shelter in your love. We thank you that we are your children. We thank you that whatever we are, however depressed we are about ourselves and the inadequacy of our own nature, we are still your children. Give us your Spirit, we pray. Give us your Holy Spirit, penetrating our whole nature, our flesh and blood, keeping us firm in faith under all temptation and distress. Give us your Spirit to fill us with hope as we look to the future, to fill us with certainty in our Lord Jesus Christ, who was, and is, and is to come, whose victory is before our eyes so that we never waver or become afraid. Give us your Spirit so that we may live in this certainty and prepare ourselves more and more for your coming into the world. May we come to know that your loving-kindness is at work today, that in the end your deliverance will come quickly, to the glory of your name. Amen.
